Fire Ecology: Science, Risk, and Resilience
Fire has always been a natural force in shaping ecosystems, influencing vegetation, soil, and wildlife. But with climate change driving hotter, drier conditions, and with human activity altering landscapes, the role of fire is shifting - bringing new risks to both people and the environment.
Join this State of the Land seminar from Lincoln University with Dr Tara Strand whose research focuses on fire behaviour, smoke modelling, and the impacts of wildfires on ecosystems and communities. Her work is helping to build resilience in the face of increasing wildfire risk, combining ecological insight with cutting-edge science and technology.
Date: Tuesday 21st October 2025.
Time: 4 to 5.30pm.
Location: Stewart Building at Lincoln University.
Cost: $5.95 per person.
