This $297,813 federal Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Integrative Activities (CFDA 47.083) program is supporting research to advance the predictive understanding of wildfire ignitions in the western United States. The award establishes new collaborations between Boise State University, the Universities Space Research Association (USRA), and NASA Ames Research Center to study the impact of climate, weather, land use, and social factors on wildfire...
Boise State University received a $279,709 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Civil, Mechanical, and Manufacturing Innovation under the Engineering (47.041) federal grant program. The award will fund collaborative research between Boise State University and four wildland-urban interface communities in three states to better understand household responses to wildfire risk and integrate social behavioral data into wildfire evacuation modeling. Specifically, the...
This $284,044 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under its Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports a research project to assess the adaptability of resilience models for hazards such as hurricanes and wildfires across multiple scales. The project employs a mixed-method, multi-site approach including public conferences, hazard mapping, risk perception surveys, and resilience planning workshops to understand how communities can...
This $181,696 federal Project Grant was awarded on February 15, 2025 by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program. The grant supports a survey experiment to investigate how recent wildfire exposure impacts public perceptions, preferences, and support for wildfire risk reduction policies and individual actions. The researchers will leverage secondary data to identify locations in Wyoming that were exposed or not exposed to severe...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $365,455 Project Grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to Boise State University to conduct collaborative research on the impacts of wildfire and plant disease disturbances on forest-to-shrubland transitions. The 3-year project, starting on September 1, 2024, will: 1) quantify the sensitivity of forest-to-shrubland transitions to repeated fire and disease disturbances; 2) identify biogeochemical and disturbance-related feedbacks...
This Project Grant award, valued at $317,959, was provided by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) to Florida State University (FSU) to conduct research aimed at gaining predictive understanding of the physical processes behind rapid wildfire spread and associated smoke transport. The key objectives of this 3-year project are to: Perform non-modal instability analysis of fire smoke plumes to delineate the key processes responsible for rapid growth of...
This Project Grant award for $108,519 from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) aims to gain predictive understanding of the physical processes driving rapid wildfire spread and associated smoke transport within the atmospheric boundary layer. The University of Oklahoma is the prime awardee and will utilize large-scale eddy simulations to validate the results of non-modal instability analysis and investigate the underlying dynamics and thermodynamic processes. This...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) provides $625,000 from September 15, 2023 to August 31, 2026 to The Research Foundation for the State University of New York (RF SUNY) to strengthen emergency management of critical infrastructure systems, with a focus on the disproportionate impacts of wildfires on socially vulnerable communities. The project aims to develop a human-centered, equity-focused,...
This $344,324 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Office of Integrative Activities will fund the development of a risk-informed decision-making platform to improve wildfire resilience in Alaska's energy sector. Awarded under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), the grant will support Washington State University researchers to advance understanding of wildfire interactions among Alaska's natural environment, energy infrastructure, and social systems. The researchers will...
This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program totaling $428,146 will fund research at the University of Colorado Boulder from September 1, 2022 to August 31, 2025. The research aims to study decision-making and collective action during post-fire recovery to inform rebuilding codes and processes. Specifically, the project will characterize how governmental organizations seek information and balance priorities to make rebuilding...
