🌲California just launched its first Carbon Flux Tower in a redwood forest! Located in CAL FIRE’s Jackson Demonstration State Forest (JDSF), the new tower tracks how carbon, water, and energy move between the forest and the atmosphere—providing scientists with real-time insights into how redwood ecosystems respond to a changing climate. Last month, JDSF welcomed the Governor’s 30x30 Committee for the ribbon cutting, celebrating a major step forward in forest and climate research. 🔬 As a living

CAL FIRE welcomes the Sawmill Demonstration State Forest to the state’s Demonstration Forest system. Located San Bernardino County, the 120-acre Sawmill property is California’s southernmost demonstration state forest. Sawmill introduces San Bernardino Mountain mixed conifer woodlands as a new forest type to the state forest system and will allow for new opportunities to maintain and study a diversity of species in a mixed aged conifer forest to build resilience against pests, disease, drought,

Dense forest canopy, challenging topography, and variable weather conditions make Jackson Demonstration State Forest a great choice for testing @Dryadnetworks Silvanet sensors. CAL FIRE is constantly testing technologies that can help detect fires early, especially in the most remote parts of the forest. Bonus outcome—the data collected here in California will help deploy this early detection system globally. #WildfireInnovation | CAL FIRE
