Riverside Fire Lab, located in Riverside, CA, is a research facility operated by the USDA Forest Service Pacific Southwest Research Station. They collaborate with the Brazilian Federal Institute of the Environment and Renewable Natural Resources to assess the impacts of fire and environmental change in tropical forests and savannas, aiming to mitigate and manage these impacts, monitor the health of tropical ecosystems, and improve technology for natural resource management.
Their integrated assessment program focuses on understanding the continental-scale effects of fire and fire emissions on climate, ecosystem productivity, and human health, while also addressing issues such as deforestation, forest harvesting, and unsustainable resource extraction. Riverside Fire Lab plays a crucial role in advancing fire science and international cooperation in the field of environmental conservation.
