![Wildfire Matters Podcast](/https/podcasts.apple.com/assets/artwork/1x1.gif)
Coleen Haskell, Joint Fire Science Program (JFSP) Program Manager, and Karen Dante-Wood, JFSP Technology Transfer Specialist, introduce us to the program created by Congress in 1998 to provide funding and science delivery for studies associated with managing wildland fire, fuel, and fire-impacted ecosystems. We discuss the history, background, and the collaborative efforts among fire researchers, managers, academic professionals, and others to provide accurate, current, and scientifically based information for our wildland fire community. We talk about the studies provided by the Fire Science Exchange Network to improve firefighter safety and health along with understanding the science behind wildland fire to justify management decisions and apply scientifically proven solutions to wildfire management issues.
