👀Detailed and low latency #wildfire info. Aim to include as layer in Google maps. 6-band multispectral infrared (IR) instruments, over 50 satellites when constellation complete, ~20min revisit. Pathfinder launch in 2025, 3 planned for launch in 2026 to initiate constellation.

Approaching #NDTR, we reflect on the ongoing impact of the displacement of Indigenous Peoples from traditional territories, including policies outlawing cultural burning and disrupting intergenerational knowledge. Reconciliation includes the right to burn. facetsjournal.com/doi/full/10.11…

Proud of MSc T Skretting who convocated today ULethbridge! Tristan's work on pine beetle impacts on fire fuels in Jasper National Park, Parks Canada will be foundational for understanding fuel consumption/fire behaviour of the Jasper Fire Complex, which burned 30% of the town on the day of her defense

Excited to announce that our work in #JasperNationalPark is featured in Canada Wildfire's fall newsletter! We show how fuels management and mountain pine beetle severity levels change fuel structures and discuss pre-fire fuels in the context of the Jasper Wildfire

What a wonderful start to the main program of the Wildland Fire Canada conference with a sunrise ceremony from Wolastoq elders by the St John River. Then it was straight into the opening session with a full house in Fredericton and many online globally #WFCC2024
