On Saturday night, @bushfirehub PhD student Brigida De Assis and Mike Letnic from UNSW spotted 19 greater gliders in one hour along Army Road in the heart of the 2019 Gospers Mtn bushfire, the largest forest fire in NSW recorded history. Glider populations seems to have survived OK.

NSW Bushfire Hub from UOW Research Western Sydney University University of Tasmania and UNSW is a finalist in the @nswenviromedia Eureka Prize for Applied Environmental Research. Learn more: youtu.be/ZLah3EsD78I #EurekaPrizes

The 2021 Australian Museum Eureka Prize winners will be announced during a live broadcast event — and you're invited to attend. Join us online from 7.00 pm AEDT on Thursday 7 October. Register now: australian.museum/get-involved/e…

The Eureka Prizes (Australian Museum Eureka Prizes) will be decided tonight. Excited/nervous to see how we go. If you are interested, register: eventcast.net.au/2021-eureka-pr…

We did it #EurekaPrizes winner for "Applied Environmental Science"! Thanks everyone who contributed to our work for the NSW Bushfire Inquiry: Unis of Tasmania, Western Sydney, NSW, Melbourne & Wollongong, & Department of Planning Industry and Environment. australian.museum/get-involved/e…

We are still celebrating the #EurekaPrizes won by the Bushfire Hub, but consider this: of the 22 University scientists working on that project, 82% have insecure positions, and most are looking for work (average 15 months contract left). The gig economy reaches everywhere.

Global Climate Change Week starts today, which we in the fire science community know is important. The University of Wollongong is running many events (#UOWGCCW), including a Climate Change and Health panel including me. Check out the list: uow.edu.au/united-nations…

I bet you did not know that the biggest tree on the University of Wollongong campus stores CO2 equivalent to 1 day of the campus emissions.#UOWGCCW. Nick Agostino and I know because he worked it out for his Honours thesis.

Congratulations to Owen Price Kat Haynes Hamish Clarke and the rest of the NSW Bushfire Research Hub on the arrival of the trophy for their Eureka prize for research into the black summer bushfires UOW CSES UOW Research

Our fire fuel consumption study was accepted for publication yesterday, wrapping up a major component of our Bushfire Hub field campaign. Thanks to Rachael Nolan, Stephanie Samson and all the helpers. More to come when published.

Could you help The @bushfirehub with a science communications project to explain the research we did for the #bushfireinquiry in NSW? We are recruiting for a 3 month job in conjunction with @nswenviromedia

My father, Professor Henry Nix AO, passed away early on Wednesday 2nd February. He died peacefully in his sleep, aged 84 (he would have been 85 next July).

Hello Rachael Collett. I am trying to contact you but cannot find a current email address for you. Can you email me at UoW

I spent Sunday with folk from @uow planting trees near Robertson for the #ThinGreenLine. We need more of this stuff! Thanks Dr Alison Haynes and @npwansw.

What has construction codes got to do with house loss in bushfires? Bridget Roberts and I found out in the 2013 Linksview in NSW. Answer? A lot! doi.org/10.1016/j.fire…

I am trying to "grow" a tree-planting program for the University of Wollongong UOW in the Illawarra. We need partners with trees to plant. We can be the army to plant your trees. Please get in touch.

The Bushfire Hub was selected as a prime example of Government/University collaboration in the NSW Chief Scientist's (NSW Chief Scientist & Engineer) research showcase. Here is me and Greg Summerell from the Department of Planning and Environment's science team giving our talk.

I just returned from the #ICFBR conference on Fire Behavior and Risk in Sardinia. What a wonderful experience to join with international colleagues, particularly after years of zoom-only meetings due to COVID.

At the Ecological Society Conference ( #ESASCBO2022) last week, the Bushfire Hub was awarded a commendation in the Ecological Application prize for our work on the 2020 NSW Bushfire Inquiry. Very proud moment

I took a bunch of delegates from the #ESASCBO2022 conference to see high severity wildfires and cultural burn last week. Wow, we all learned a lot from the conversation. Thanks to Uncle Victor Channell and Fire Manager Damien Dubrowin for their input.
