Did you know that the Bushfire Research Centre of Excellence has a website? Check it out today to learn more about us, and browse our research to see how you can collaborate with us to transform how fires are found and fought in Australia! brcoe.org

Read our latest publication, and discover why a redefinition of the wildfire management paradigm is needed in order to live safely in the human-driven new age of megafires: lnkd.in/gnpeqmZu

Great day at NASA Goddard Engaged in fire science talks, saw incredible tech demos, explored advanced instruments, and brainstormed new ideas. Thanks to everyone, especially @NASA_Doug for the fantastic tour. Exciting collaborations ahead!

Our Director Marta Yebra was hosted by @EnvRS_TUD in Germany this week, sharing our Centre's important work on using ground and satellite sensors to monitor fuel for bushfire risk

Our researchers had a great time this week sharing our knowledge on space technologies with keen young students at ACT Space Industry Work Exploration Program! Hopefully these students will become future leaders in the space industry, preventing bushfires and more 🔥 🚀 🌏

Have your say on the adoption of aviation technology for fire management with this survey: surveymonkey.com/r/X5NTP8S Get your responses in by 12 August to support our Drones and Bushfire Capability project with AusGov Infrastructure: drones.gov.au/drones-and-bus…

BRCoE Director Marta Yebra doesn't just protect the Australian landscape though research into bushfire risk - she also helps celebrate it through art! Last night Marta opened 'Emotional Landscapes 1' at ANCA Gallery in Dickson, ACT - anca.net.au

Welcome to our new Research Officer, Tina Gopalan! Tina joins us with a first-class honours degree, and expertise in ecology and conservation. She is currently researching the use of different sensor types and methods for early bushfire detection. Great to have you on board!

Don't forget that you only have 12 more days to have your say on the adoption of aviation technology for fire management! Fill in this survey here: surveymonkey.com/r/X5NTP8S

Our Director Marta Yebra recent met with Australia's Chief Scientist and ANU InSpace collaborators, for a valuable discussion on emerging trends in research funding, and sustainable support for our Centre. Many thanks to Dr Foley for her expert advice and guidance!

This National #ScienceWeek, take a look at our work with scientists at the ANU Bushfire Research Centre of Excellence and Firetech Connect which is exploring how cutting edge drone technology can help reduce bushfire risk and support emergency response and capability: drones.gov.au/drones-and-bus…

Check out our latest article on plant water sensitivity! This study, led by colleagues at Stanford University, shows the need to consider the full environmental context for plant responses to water stress, and subsequent bushfire risk. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.11…

Our Centre recently came together with ACT RuralFireService, ACT ESA, & NSW RFS for a strategic workshop. We worked together on case studies, designing systems to understand how new technologies can fit together for effective and fast detection and suppression of fires.

Check out our new publication with colleagues from Hebrew University ! This article shows the pressing need to develop new LFMC models using remote sensing data with better spatial and temporal resolutions. Read more here: ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/10638…

Join our Director Marta Yebra and other women leaders in sensing technology as NSSN host a panel discussion and networking event at the ANU on Thursday, 12 September. Register here: lnkd.in/giPvchjm Read about the speakers here: lnkd.in/gvFmq_V7

Join us next week at the Sydney Convention Centre for #AFAC24! 🎪 Talk to us at exhibitor stall #451 with partners Carbonix 🗣 Listen to our co-presentation with Carbonix: Solutions Theatre 9.55am Thurs 5 September 🖼 See our poster on the evaluation of fire detection tech

Welcome to our latest visitor, Johanna Kranz from the Dresden University of Technology in Germany! Johanna joins us to work on the integration of different sources of live fuel moisture content estimates from local to global scales.

🔥 👩‍🚒 🚒 All set up and ready for #AFAC24! We're excited to share our expertise and hear from other emergency management professionals. Will you join us and our colleagues Carbonix at stall #451?

Come and learn more about our Australian specific camera-based smoke detection database at the #AFAC24 poster presentation today - and don't forget to swing by our stall (451)! Our smoke detection database will allow validation and benchmarking of detection algorithms.

Welcome to our new Indigenous Fellow, Adrian (Ado) Webster! Ado is a Yuin and Thunghutti Man. He joins our Centre for a project to enhance bushfire research through Aboriginal knowledge and satellite validation. Thanks for sharing your expertise, Ado!
