Jamie Burton

Research Fellow · The University Of Melbourne · company speakers →

<p>Jamie is a fire scientist with FLARE Wildfire Research at the University of Melbourne. Jamie&rsquo;s research focuses on landscape flammability and the processes that drive flammability across spatial scales. Her PhD research (submitted in 2022) focused on identifying the factors influencing litter bed flammability, integrating existing datasets with laboratory and field experiments. She is currently using large climate and fire history datasets to evaluate which moisture indices best predict wildfire risk at weekly to seasonal timescales across Australia&rsquo;s heterogeneous landscapes. Looking ahead, Jamie aims to continue integrating laboratory experiments, field observations, and landscape-scale analyses to support improved fire management and decision-making.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
