NOTE: Citations appearing in brackets and bold print before each reference (e.g., [Dale_2009]), represent the HTML "Anchor" name for that reference. Most of our references are available in PDF format, and are linked directly to each citation. Users of this website are welcomed to access the following library of PDF sources in their own work. This is readily accomplished by using the URL for this page (http://www.Wildfire-Economics.org/Library), followed by the pound sign (#) and the Anchor name. Thus, a citation such as (Dale 2009), for example, can be referenced (and accessed) from anywhere on the Internet by using the following address: http://www.Wildfire-Economics.org/Library#Dale_2009.
