Congrats to Jakirul Islam Prothan for winning 2nd place in the Remote Sensing Specialty Group Student Illustrated Paper Competition at the 2026 Annual Meeting of the American Association of Geographers in San Francisco last week! #NMSU #Geography #RemoteSensing #WildfireScience #StudentSuccess

To wrap up #CAArborWeek, we’re revisiting how #redwoods recover from wildfires. 🌲🔥

Witness the resilience of these iconic giants in our films:

Incorporating fire severity mapping into fuel accumulation curves Models of vegetation and fuel accumulation following fire are important for carbon accounting, species conservation and fire prediction. In terms of f…

How a forest burns matters for what happens next. Our research shows low-severity fires can leave more litter fuel on the ground, meaning fire risk may rebuild faster than thought.

⚠️ Why did LA burn in winter?
"Hot drought" made massive wildfires 149-210% more likely during the rainy season.
Climate is rewriting fire season rules.

AI-powered vision gives meaning to wildfire chaos How wildfires spread is more variable and unpredictable than Canada's standard models assume, new research from UBC Okanagan data scientists shows.

Wildfires are wilder than we thought! 🤯 New UBC research reveals fire spread is far more unpredictable—challenging current models. 🔥 #WildfireScience

By preventing severe fires, these treatments help preserve:
🌳 Carbon storage — keeping climate-warming gases out of the atmosphere
🌲 Timber resources — protecting future livelihoods
🏞️ Soil & erosion control — stabilizing landscapes
💨 Air quality — reducing harmful smoke impacts
#wildfirescience

Fuel treatments impact burn severity, even in extreme conditions. They moderate wildfire severity & boost forest resilience. But success depends on forest type, weather & history. #WildfireScience
