We like to highlight the activities of SER MWGL members and partner organizations and so in that vein, want to draw your attention to  a new webinar series on “Connecting Research Methods to Fire Management Decisions” sponsored by the Tallgrass Prairie and Oak Savanna Fire Science Consortium (TPOS).  The webinar series was announced by Craig Maier, SER MWGL chapter member and Project Coordinator of TPOS.

 

The next webinar in the series will be March 6, 2019 on the topic of The Danger of an Overly-Precise Burn Prescription:
Re-visiting perspectives and knowledge gaps on fire and which factors to consider for measuring success.

The first webinar in the series “Fire Science Literacy: How to better understand and communicate the wildland fire environment, was held February 19, 2019.
