ALASKA FIRE SCIENCE CONSORTIUM

The need for awareness, understanding and application of wildland fire science information has grown immensely as managers are faced with challenging decisions in today’s fire environment. The best available science is often not readily accessible, written in a digestible format, or presented in a context relevant to fire and land managers. The Alaska Fire Science Consortium (AFSC) is part of the JFSP Knowledge Exchange Network designed to accelerate the understanding and adoption of applied fire science research in Alaska.
