Montana NSF EPSCoR
Our program is strengthening statewide research competitiveness and creating solutions that support resilient communities and a sustainable future through collaborative science and education in areas of critical importance to Montana—such as water, climate, and fire.
SMART FIRES
The current project advances science and technology to support Montana communities in understanding and managing fire in the landscape. By studying prescribed burning, wildfire behavior, and smoke impacts, researchers are developing tools and partnerships that promote a healthier environment, resilient communities, and informed decision-making in a changing fire environment.
