“…Regional analyses involving broad networks of fire-scar chronologies in the Southwest (e.g., Swetnam and Baisan, 1996;Swetnam et al, 2001), and western U.S. (Kitzberger et al, 2001(Kitzberger et al, , 2007 have produced multiple insights about long-term climate and land use controls on fire regimes. There have, however, been relatively few ''spatially explicit'' fire history investigations at landscape scales (i.e., mountain range to watersheds) in the Southwest (see Fulé et al, 2003;van Horne and Fulé , 2006;Falk and Swetnam, 2003, Farris, personal communication).…”
