Abstract
Channel response to forest fire involves both exogenous (i.e., originating out side the study reach) and endogenous (i.e., originating within the reach) changes in the conditions governing channel morphology. The goals of this article are to give an over view of the UBCRM, to briefly discuss the data collection and calibration procedures, and then to use the model to evaluate how a particular case study stream might respond following a forest fire. The study stream is Fishtrap Creek, which was burned by the McLure fire in August 2003. This article explores the potential future response of the stream channel over several decades and does not focus on the changes observed to date.
