Wildland fire events have particularly significant impacts on communities and ecosystems in rural areas. Many residents in these areas lack the financial resources to cope with and mitigate the impacts of wildland fire events. This context is particularly the case in much of the Southern United States where social and cultural contexts present unique challenges for disaster response and mitigation. This project develops plans to investigate the impacts of wildland fire in the growing wildland-urban interface (WUI) in the Southern United States and contributes to the understanding of the unique dynamics in this critical zone. This research provides both scientific and practical insight to advance the discourse on wildland fire events as a mechanism to enhance community resilience. The project uses a stakeholder driven approach to collate data and resources as a foundation for continued scientific investigation of increasingly prominent yet still insufficiently understood issues surrounding wildfire hazards and human settlement.This project involves convening and moderating conversations among a range of researchers, practitioners, and other stakeholders to discuss wildland fire risk and explore key issues for successfully mitigating, managing, and living with wildland fire hazards in the Southern U.S. The research team gathers information on current wildfire plans, regulations, and administrative and communications structures in the region to better understand governance as related to wildland fire risk and investigate potential risks of wildfire to the built environment, response systems, and the health of responders and local communities. The research objectives are to: (1) identify key challenges to wildland fire mitigation in the South through practitioner and academic discussions; (2) assess the integration of wildland fire risk management in plans and regulations in the Southern United States; and (3) understand community resilience through preparedness and response planning and coordination of public-private stakeholders to enhance healthcare access before, during and after a wildfire. The geographic focus on the U.S. South reflects the researcher team’s broader intent to augment wildfire-related knowledge and capabilities of understudied and potentially underprepared regions as climate change amplifies risk and uncertainty.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

Wildland Fire事件对农村地区的社区和生态系统产生了特别重大的影响。这些地区的许多居民缺乏应付和减轻野外火灾事件影响的财务资源。在美国南部的大多数情况下，这种情况尤其如此，社会和文化背景给灾难反应和缓解带来了独特的挑战。该项目制定了计划，计划调查野生火灾在美国南部不断增长的荒野界面（WUI）中的影响，并有助于理解该关键区域的独特动态。这项研究提供了科学和实用的见解，以推动关于野外火灾事件的论述，以此作为增强社区韧性的一种机制。该项目采用利益相关者的驱动方法来整理数据和资源，作为对日益突出但仍未充分理解围绕野火危害和人类设置的问题的继续科学研究的基础。该项目涉及召集并进行对话，并在各种研究人员，从业者，实践者以及其他利益方面与其他利益相关者在野外危险中，以及探索野外狂潮的范围和探索MITIG的众多范围的众多范围，并探索MITIG的范围，并探索MITIG的众多范围，并探索MITIG的危险问题。收集有关该地区当前野火计划，法规以及行政和通信结构的信息，以更好地理解与野外火灾风险相关的治理，并调查野生火灾的潜在风险，对建筑环境，响应系统以及响应者和当地社区的健康。研究目标是：（1）通过从业者和学术讨论来确定南方野生火灾缓解危机的关键挑战； （2）评估在美国南部计划和法规中野外火灾风险管理的整合； （3）通过准备和响应计划以及公私利益相关者的协调来了解社区的韧性，以增强野火之前，之中和之后的医疗保健访问。对美国南部的地理重点反映了研究人员团队的广泛意图，以增加与气候变化放大器风险和不确定性的理解和潜在区域的知识和能力，这反映了NSF的法规任务，并认为通过基金会的知识绩效和广泛的criitia crietia crietia crietia crietia crietia crietia crietia crietia cristia crietia cristia cristia crietia cristia cristia cripitia cripitia cripitia cripitia cripitia cristia cristia cristia cristia scriperia secline the诚实。
