	Aldo Leopold Wilderness Research Institute - Current Wildland Fire Research Projects
		In many wilderness and other unroaded areas, however, current fuel conditions may preclude the use of wildland fire because of excessive risks to natural resource values within the wilderness or to social values in the adjacent wildland urban interface (WUI).
		But many exotic plants are disturbance specialists and they currently surround most wildernesses, so there is great concern that fire will now allow these exotics a foothold from which they may spread throughout the wilderness, in effect trading one problem (lack of fire) for another (exotic plants).
		This research will give managers information about whether exotic plants are likely to invade naturally-ignited or management-ignited burn areas in wilderness, allowing them to analyze tradeoffs between restoring fire and the potential for introducing exotic plants, as well as planning mitigation strategies for these exotics in those areas where their invasion is most likely.
