Fire science and the environment

National Parks and Wildlife Service SA studies fire to use as a tool to help conserve and manage native ecosystems, and to find ways to help reduce the harmful impacts of bushfire.

We use the best available global, national and local science, data and knowledge and adapt our activities based on the latest information.

We also review current research across the globe, on multiple aspects of fire management such as ecology, fire behaviourplanningrisk analysisclimate change etc.
