Job Type/Duration Description
The objective of the project is to better understand the conditions under which treatments produce desirable outcomes, including reduction in fire severity, successful containment of fire spread by suppression operations, and well as reduction in wildfire impacts to homes and other infrastructure, to inform future adaptive management. The project involves both methodological development that will allow for future comparisons across geographic regions, and analysis of case studies in landscapes.
