Abstract
One Health's interdisciplinary approach has been effective at the nexus of human and animal health but often overlooks environmental health, including wildland fire. Fire management seeks to suppress dangerous fires and to manage others for resource benefit, which inherently pits human health against the health of fire-dependent biodiversity. One Health may better address past failures to achieve fire management goals by providing a more comprehensive and cohesive framework explicitly recognizing interconnectedness of plant, animal, human, and environmental health. Although there are exceptions, we suggest novel health solutions and maximal health benefits will most often result from pyrohealth synchrony: actively aligning contemporary fire management with historic fire-regimes (i.e., long-term patterns in fire frequency, intensity, severity, seasonality, and spatial extent). We also present a process for making fire-integrated One Health an applied reality capable of galvanizing stakeholders around interventions that better interconnect fire to the health of plants, animals, people, and environments.
