About

A Go-To Resource for Northern Rockies Fire Science

The Northern Rockies Fire Science Network (NRFSN) is a go-to resource for managers and scientists involved in fire and fuels management in the Rocky Mountains of Idaho, Montana, Washington, and Wyoming. We facilitate knowledge exchange among managers and scientists by bringing people together to strengthen collaborations, synthesize science, and enhance science application to critical fire and fuels management issues.

Activities include workshops and fieldtrips, a Network of Fire Science Champions, syntheses and research briefs, online resources (research & publications database, webinar archive, and newsletter), and webinars. All activities and products are guided by our logic model and input from managers involved in fire and fuels management.

Through these activities, our goals are to:

1. Expand scientist-manager communication networks
2. Increase scientist understanding of fire management challenges and research needs
3. Improve access to and application of science by managers
4. Improve public understanding of and support for fire management
5. Increase the integration of scientific and traditional knowledge on tribal and adjacent lands
6. Facilitate management of resilient ecosystems in the Northern Rockies
