Wildfires from Space
Wildfires from Space More Lessons from the Sky Satellite Educators Association http://SatEd.org This is an adaptation of an original lesson plan developed and published on-line by Natasha Stavros at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory. The original problem set and all of its related links is available from this address: https://www.jpl.nasa.gov/edu/teach/activity/fired-up-over-math-studying-wildfires-from-space/ Please see the Acknowledgements section for historical contributions to the development of this lesson plan. This spotlight on the “Wildfires from Space” lesson plan was published in November 2016 in More Lessons from the Sky, a regular feature of the SEA Newsletter, and archived in the SEA Lesson Plan Library. Both the Newsletter and the Library are freely available on-line from the Satellite Educators Association (SEA) at this address: http://SatEd.org.

Teaching Notes Wildfires from Space Invitation Wildfire is a global reality, and with the onset of climate change, the number of yearly wildfires is increasing. The impacts range from the immediate and tangible to the delayed and less obvious. In this activity, students assess wildfires using remote sensing imagery. -

Geologic Hazards
Burned Area Emergency Response (BAER) Assessment FINAL Specialist Report – GEOLOGIC HAZARDS Thomas Fire –Los Padres N.F. December, 2017 Jonathan Yonni Schwartz – Geomorphologist/geologist, Los Padres NF Introduction The Thomas Fire started on December 4, 2017, near the Thomas Aquinas College (east end of Sulphur Mountain), Ventura County, California. The fire is still burning and as of December 13, 2017, is estimated to have burned 237,500 acres and is 25% contained. Since the fire is still active, the BAER Team analysis is separated into two phases. This report/analysis covers a very small area of the fire above the community of Ojai, California and is considered phase 1 (of 2). Under phase 1 of this BAER assessment, 40,271 acres are being analyzed (within the fire parameter) out of which 22,971 acres are on National Forest Service Lands. The remaining 17,300 acres are divided between County, City and private lands. Out of a total of 40,271 acres that were analyzed, 99 acres were determined to have burned at a high soil burn severity, 19,243 acres at moderate soil burn severity, 12,044 acres at low soil burn severity and 8,885 acres were unburned. All of the above acres including the unburned acres are within the fire parameter. This report describes and assesses the increase in risk from geologic hazards within the Thomas Fire burned area. When evaluating Geologic Hazards, the focus of the “Geology” function on a BAER Team is on identifying the geologic conditions and geomorphic processes that have helped shape and alter the watersheds and landscapes, and assessing the impacts from the fire on those conditions and processes which will affect downstream values at risk. -

National Fire Incident Reporting System (NFIRS)
National Fire Incident Reporting System (NFIRS) WI Fire Departments with Missing Incidents 2016 Calendar Year Updated January 12, 2017 Fire departments that are not missing a single incident report in the 2016 calendar year are not shaded. Fire departments that are missing a month or more of incident reports and are shaded in Orange. Fire departments that have not reported a single incident all year, they are shaded in Red. Fire departments that are inactive are shaded in Light Green. If your department didn’t have a reportable incident in any given month, perhaps a “No Activity” report should be completed for the month (see next paragraph). If you feel the report is in error, please contact us for additional assistance. For those months when the department has NO incidents at all for the entire month, a "No Activity" report can be completed. This allows you to sign-in, keeping your account active, and gives anyone looking the information that there were no incidents to report rather than allowing the thought that a department isn't current in their reporting. (Start an incident report - Key Information; date the incident as the last day of the month; use all 0s (seven zeros) as your incident number so that it doesn't interfere with your numbering sequence; check the box on the far right, No Activity; Save the incident; and close the report). Please remember that a “No Activity” report cannot be used if there is a single incident including Mutual Aid already reported for the month.
