Events

As part of Hawai‘i Invasive Species Awareness month, Dr. Clay Trauernicht will focus on the grass-fire cycle at the landscape scale to describe the scale of the challenge at hand, the contributions of historical and social change, and examples of how people are working together to deal with it.

University of Hawaiʻi’s Kevin Faccenda and Dr. Clay Trauernicht Wildland Fire Specialist will introduce how certain invasive plants promote wildfire in Hawai‘i and how the new Weed Fire Risk Database analyzes 360+ weed species for their fire-promoting traits.
