- This federal Project Grant award of $586,069 from the National Science Foundation's Office of International Science and Engineering (CFDA 47.079) supports the "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: FIRE-NET: PALEOFIRE-AFRICA: BUILDING A DATA-DRIVEN NETWORK FOR LONG-TERM FIRE-ECOSYSTEM RESILIENCE" project at The Pennsylvania State University. The overarching goal is to create global standards for past fire data and mobilize data from Africa onto the Neotoma Paleoecology Database, a platform for...
- This Project Grant award of $411,021.00 from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports a collaborative research project titled "FIRE-NET: GRASS FIRES: A CONVERGENT NETWORK FOR UNDERSTANDING FUELS AND FIRE RISK IN GRASSLANDS". The project aims to fill critical knowledge gaps around how grassland fuel structures vary across space and time, enabling improved assessment and mitigation of wildfire risk in grassland ecosystems. Key activities include...
- This $836,720 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Environmental Biology will support research integrating modern and paleoecological perspectives to disentangle grazer and climate controls on fire activity. Over a three-year period from January 2023 through December 2025, the awardee Yale University will combine data from nine present-day herbivore exclusion experiments, observational records from remote sensing and field monitoring, and five paleoecological archives...
- This $2,496,689 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will establish the FIRE-NET network to develop a new framework for "fast fire risk" across the western United States. The goal is to better understand and predict the growing threat of fast-moving wildfires that have become more frequent and destructive in recent years. The project will leverage expertise across multiple disciplines to create advanced data modeling and...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) Project Grant award of $270,278 to the University of Rhode Island will support research to better understand the long-term relationship between climate and fire activity in the eastern United States. The project aims to analyze sediment records spanning the Holocene (last ~12,000 years) to compare historical fire and climate patterns prior to significant human impacts. This empirical data will be used to quantify...
- This $1,360,564 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program supports a collaborative research project titled "FIRE-MODEL: Using Multitemporal Ecosystem Energetics to Understand Changes to Fuels and Future Fire Regimes." The project aims to examine and quantify the processes of fuel accumulation and decomposition in order to improve models for predicting future fire regimes across western North America. Key activities include...
- This $162,477 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports research into the long-term relationships between human fire management practices and environmental change in high-elevation ecosystems of the Pacific Northwest. The key objectives are to: conduct archaeological surveys of subalpine ecosystems, interpret early Holocene subsistence patterns and changes in cultural burning practices, and investigate...
