Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Wildland Fires: Toward Improved Monitoring, Modeling, and Management--A Workshop
Rolling Submissions
NASEM
Description
The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine will assemble an ad-hoc committee tasked with planning a workshop on greenhouse gas emissions from wildland fires. The goal of the workshop is to identify opportunities for improving measurements and model projections of emissions and considering how changes in emissions from remote wildland fires could affect the ability to achieve 'net-zero' GHG emissions targets. The workshop will be designed to include perspectives from various sectors, as well as indigenous and un...

Other Grantor Information
The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine are private, nonprofit institutions that provide independent, objective advice to inform policy with evidence, spark progress and innovation, and confront challenging issues for the benefit of society. They are comprised of three academies: the National Academy of Sciences, the National Academy of Engineering, and the National Academy of Medicine. The organization convenes hundreds of conferences, workshops, and symposia annually, bringing together leading experts from academia, public, and private sectors. Their work focuses on providing high-quality, evidence-based consensus on complex scientific, engineering, and health-related challenges. They produce peer-reviewed reports, publish scientific journals, and serve as a trusted source of expert advice for policymaking. The National Academies mobilize approximately 6,000 top experts each year who volunteer their time and knowledge to conduct policy studies, workshops, and other activities aimed at addressing critical issues facing the nation and world.
Additional Information
The workshop will consider the likelihood of increasing frequency of megafires in remote regions, the potential for these regions to be large GHG emissions sources, and incorporate indigenous knowledge on forest and emission management. It will also address impacts of wildland fires on human health, safety, and ecosystems. Additional URLs:
