Here's a cool paper I just heard about tonight at #FBF2026 when chatting to @littlekerryn.bsky.social and Marta Yebra: Using citizen science to collect samples to examine fuel moisture and flammability of heather across the UK. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Final panel at #FBF2026 with @littlekerryn.bsky.social et al. Some great suggestions, including the importance of social science in solving wildfire issues. I agree completely. We have quite a lot of useful knowledge, the question is how we can get people to use it and change behavior when needed.

Lots of active fires today and this evening in Saskatchewan and Manitoba. GOES-West Geocolor loop below. The elongated smoke plumes are the result of strong NW winds.

New study from my group with stellar international team. A multi-national dataset of prescribed #fires compiled and standardised from national records, with contemporaneous #weather conditions, land cover, fuel bed type, ++, included with each record. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
