The FireCenter is a unique combination of scientists, fire professionals, and technology practitioners converging to assess, develop, and deploy appropriate science, tools and technologies in wildland fire and natural resource management. The FireCenter approaches development of new science and technologies as partners of people and uses these partnerships to identify and act quickly on fire management needs. By facilitating science transfer from the academic to the applied realm, we ensure land managers in the United States are using the best available science and technology. By partnering with scientists and managers we can provide people in the fire community with new ideas and tools to address the increasingly complex issues facing fire management today and tomorrow.
