The USGS is offering this grant to develop a proposal for the Joint Fire Science Program, outlining a two-year plan for the Mid-west Oak Woodland and Forest Fire Consortium (MOWFFC). MOWFFC will promote fire information dissemination across the interior US, focusing on oak-dominated communities like woodlands, forests, savannas, and barrens. The consortium aims to connect fire professionals and efficiently address regional fire issues. This funding supports the comprehensive planning required to launch MOWFFC, ensuring its vital role in fire management and knowledge sharing for these critical ecosystems.
