Although fire behaviour principles are considered when developing fuel management treatments there is little in the literature that attempts to measure the effectiveness of various treatment options for different fuel types. Consequently, fuel treatments that are conclusively supported by science and validated with case studies are rare. However, it is recognized within the fire community that experienced-based knowledge, gained from extensive fire experience, is an important source of information used for designing effective fuel treatments.This project aimed to synthesize the current state of knowledge of fuelbreak effectiveness from conventional sources of information, augmented by agency practices and experience-based knowledge from fire personnel.[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"clearboth\"><\/div><style>#thegem-divider-69e101329a9aa {margin-top: 48px !important;}<\/style><div id=\"thegem-divider-69e101329a9aa\" class=\"gem-divider  \" style=\"\" ><\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">.thegem-button-69e101329aba84993 .gem-button svg {fill: #ffffff;}.thegem-button-69e101329aba84993 .gem-button:hover svg {fill: #ffffff;}<\/style><div class=\"gem-button-container gem-button-position-inline thegem-button-69e101329aba84993    \"  ><a class=\"gem-button gem-button-size-small gem-button-style-flat gem-button-text-weight-normal\" data-ll-effect=\"drop-right-without-wrap\" style=\"border-radius: 3px;background-color: #faa533;color: #ffffff;\" onmouseleave=\"this.style.backgroundColor='#faa533';this.style.color='#ffffff';\" onmouseenter=\"this.style.backgroundColor='#0b4a6b';this.style.color='#ffffff';\" href=\"https:\/\/library.fpinnovations.ca\/en\/viewer?file=%2fmedia%2fFOP%2f9438.pdf#search=Fuelbreak%20effectiveness%20in%20Canada%27s%20boreal%20forests%3a%20a%20synthesis%20of%20current%20knowledge&#038;phrase=false&#038;pagemode=bookmarks\" target=\"_self\">Report Document<\/a><\/div> [\/vc_column][vc_column width=\u00a0\u00bb1\/4&Prime;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Project [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] Fuelbreak effectiveness in Canada&rsquo;s boreal forests: a synthesis of current knowledge [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=\u00a0\u00bb1\/4&Prime;][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text] Year [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]2010[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] status [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Completed[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":26697,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[113,110],"tags":[126],"class_list":{"0":"post-27242","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-community-resilience-and-fuels-fr","8":"category-report-fr","9":"tag-corridor-fr"},"menu_order":0,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wildfire.fpinnovations.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27242","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wildfire.fpinnovations.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wildfire.fpinnovations.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wildfire.fpinnovations.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wildfire.fpinnovations.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=27242"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/wildfire.fpinnovations.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27242\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":27243,"href":"https:\/\/wildfire.fpinnovations.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27242\/revisions\/27243"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wildfire.fpinnovations.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/26697"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wildfire.fpinnovations.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=27242"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wildfire.fpinnovations.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=27242"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wildfire.fpinnovations.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=27242"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
