FireSense 2023

FireSense is a NASA program to study wildfires (put FireSense URL here).  SLAP participated in the first FireSense campaign in September and October 2023. This campaign focused on 4 use cases: pre-fire fuel conditions, active fire dynamics, post-fire impacts, and air quality forecasting.  SLAP observations spanned sites corresponding to pre-fire (Colorado, California) and post-fire (Canada) conditions.
