GSI Seminar Series - Professor Claire Belcher

Join the GSI for a seminar with Professor Claire Belcher to discuss her work on wildfires and their implications on ecosystems, as well as their ability to influence feedbacks to Earth system processes.

Claire is Professor and Chair of Wildland Fire. Her research seeks to understand the impact of fires on ecosystems and the longer-term functioning of our planet. Claire is Director of the wildFIRE Lab and experimental wildFIRE Laboratory see https://wildfire-lab.com/ The wildFIRE Lab teams works across the fire sciences building new understanding of the impacts of fire behaviour on ecosystems through to understanding how variations in flammability across scales influences fire adaptations and evolutionary innovations in plants and the ability of wildfires to influence feedbacks to Earth system processes.
