Topics
The committee will examine how research on experimental fires can be improved to strengthen fire and smoke models for prescribed burns. The committee will:
Identify relevant agency research projects and data collection efforts, questions and challenges regarding data collection, analysis, and modeling of wildland fire and smoke; the capabilities of current models; and the extent of knowledge gaps.
Identify opportunities for improving the efficiency of research efforts from federal agencies to improve wildland fire and smoke models. For example, there may be opportunities related to coordination of data collection, model interoperability, and modifications of methodologies to refine the models.
