SUMMARY:Partner Webinar: SFE FireMap 2.0
DESCRIPTION:SE FireMap 2.0 Webinar:\nTuesday\, September 20th\n2:00 PM ET \nFree and open to all.\nRegister now for a free and open webinar on the Southeast (SE) FireMap on Tuesday\, September 20th! \nJoin us to learn about the SE FireMap and what we’re doing to make this decision-support tool even more useful for resource managers. Led by USDA-NRCS\, Tall Timbers Research\, and USGS. \nExpanding & Updating the SE FireMap \nWhen: Tuesday\, September 20th\, 2022 \nAt: 2 PM US/Eastern \nWhere: On Zoom – Register here \nWebinar Description: \nThe SE FireMap is a fire mapping system that uses remote sensing to track prescribed fire and wildfire activity throughout the southeast. A beta version of the SE FireMap was released in early 2021 and an expanded SE FireMap 2.0 will be released by Spring 2025. SE FireMap 2.0 will provide annually updated information to increase the effectiveness of fire planning and conservation practices. \nDuring this webinar\, we will walk through SE FireMap 1.0\, discuss the development of SE FireMap 2.0\, and outline ways users can provide input on its development. Q&A will follow a brief presentation. The SE FireMap was developed with funding from USDA-NRCS. \nRegistration is required on Zoom \n  \n

SUMMARY:Partner Webinar: The Chemistry of Fires at the Wildland Urban Interface
DESCRIPTION:Report Webinar: The Chemistry of Fires at the Wildland-Urban Interface\n3:00 – 4:00 PM ET Tuesday\, September 20\, 2022 \nRegister for the webinar here  \nHosted by the US National Academies of Sciences \nWildfires in America are becoming larger\, more frequent\, and more destructive\, driven by climate change and existing land management practices. Many of these fires occur at the wildland-urban interface (WUI)\, areas where development and wildland areas overlap and which are increasingly at risk of devastating fires as communities continue to expand into previously undeveloped areas. Unlike conventional wildfires\, WUI fires are driven in part by burning of homes\, cars\, and other human-made structures\, and in part by burning vegetation.  The interaction of these two types of fires can lead to public health effects that are unique to WUI fires. \nThis report evaluates existing and needed chemistry information that decision-makers can use to mitigate WUI fires and their potential health impacts. It describes key fuels of concern in WUI fires\, especially household components like siding\, insulation\, and plastic\, examines key pathways for exposure\, including inhalation and ingestion\, and identifies communities vulnerable to exposures. The report recommends a research agenda to inform response to and prevention of WUI fires\, outlining needs in characterizing fuels\, and predicting emissions and toxicants. \nJoin project staff and members of the committee for a public release webinar about the new report on Tuesday\, September 20th from 3:00PM to 4:00PM EDT. \nJoin this public release webinar for the new consensus study report\, The Chemistry of Fires at the Wildland-Urban Interface Report.
