I'm really proud of this project, the culmination of 12 yrs of research on our plant BBQ.
Our plant flammability data are being used in this new @FireEmergencyNZ website to guide decisions about which species to plant around your property.

Last month, we bid a fond farewell to long-serving Communications Director, David Bruce. David led communications and engagement for more than 18 years and his significant skills, experience and sense of humour will be sorely missed.

Check out our latest article on plant water sensitivity! This study, led by colleagues at @Stanford, shows the need to consider the full environmental context for plant responses to water stress, and subsequent bushfire risk.

Our Director @Myebra12 recent met with @ScienceChiefAu and ANU InSpace collaborators, for a valuable discussion on emerging trends in research funding, and sustainable support for our Centre.
Many thanks to Dr Foley for her expert advice and guidance!

Welcome to our new Research Officer, Tina Gopalan!
Tina joins us with a first-class honours degree, and expertise in ecology and conservation. She is currently researching the use of different sensor types and methods for early bushfire detection.
Great to have you on board!

Have your say on the adoption of aviation technology for fire management with this survey: surveymonkey.com/r/X5NTP8S
Get your responses in by 12 August to support our Drones and Bushfire Capability project with @AusGovInfra: drones.gov.au/drones-and-bus…

@mikewulder Totally agreed. I have made similar comments in some of my manuscripts. Taking a sample on the ground to represent a satellite estimate of (in my case) fuel moisture content in a 500X 500 m area is infeasible …

Interesting insights, issues, and suggestions regarding ground reference data for assessing accuracy of #remotesensing maps.
