About the JFSP Knowledge Exchange Consortia
The Joint Fire Science Program (JFSP) knowledge exchange consortia vision is to be a national network that accelerates awareness, understanding, and adoption of wildland fire science information by federal, tribal, state, local, and private stakeholders within ecologically similar regions.
The JFSP regional consortia are guided by the following principles:
to be inclusive, neutral science partners, end-user driven, collaborative, innovative, and overall to facilitate the flow of fire science information.
There are now fourteen regional consortia, including eight established consortia and six new consortia. The NRFSN is one of the new consortia.
Welcome to the Northern Rockies Fire Science Network
The Northern Rockies Fire Science Network (NRFSN) seeks to enhance communication between managers and scientists about fire management issues and research products. The NRFSN aims to facilitate interactions between managers and scientists; identify fire and fuel research needs; and improve access to knowledge and tools to serve those needs.
The Northern Rockies Fire Science Network is part of a national network of consortia established by the JFSP to accelerate the awareness, understanding, and adoption of wildland fire science information by federal, tribal, state, local, and private stakeholders in the Northern Rocky Mountains of Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming. The NRFSN is being developed in collaboration with Joint Fire Science Program, Rocky Mountain Research Station, National Forest System, National Park Service, the University of Montana, University of Idaho, Montana State University, and Salish Kootenai College.
