Prescribed fire is one of the most effective tools land managers and landowners have for maintaining fire-dependent ecosystems, improving habitat, and reducing hazardous fuel buildup that increases wildfire risk. Yet, coordinating multiple burns while waiting for the right weather conditions can be challenging. The Prescribed Burn Planner (PBP) was originally developed to help users plan and prioritize prescribed burns by providing weather forecasts for individual burn units, thus hopefully reducing the number of missed burn windows.
In this webinar, we aim to bring together wildfire researchers and practitioners to discuss how we, as people bearing witness to often devastating impacts of wildfire and climate change, can support one another and ourselves to sustain our mental health, wellbeing, and capacity to conduct collaborative and trauma-informed research.
