A NASA-funded study has found that controlled burns can help sequoia trees survive wildfires by reducing the buildup of flammable materials around them. This method may offer a way to protect these ancient trees while managing fire risks in forested areas. The research highlights the potential benefits of using prescribed fires as a tool in wildfire prevention and forest conservation efforts.
