The Fourmile Canyon fire was the most destructive wildland fire in Colorado's history, destroying more than 160 homes and burning over 6,000 acres of forest. There is an urgent need for historical perspective on wildfires and post-fire regeneration. Graduate students Meredith Gartner, Teresa Chapman, Cameron Naficy and Monica Rother will work on this project which will include an exhibit to be displayed at the CU-ºù«ÍÞÊÓƵ Museum on campus and a website on wildfire history and wildfire hazard in ºù«ÍÞÊÓƵ County to connect the Veblen lab’s fire research to local residents, K-12 educators, land managers, and policymakers.<br>See <a href="https://outreach.colorado.edu/programs" rel="nofollow">Outreach and Engagement- CU-ºù«ÍÞÊÓƵ</a> for more information.</p></div> </div> <div class="ucb-article-content-media ucb-article-content-media-right col-lg"> <div> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--media paragraph--view-mode--default"> <div> <div class="imageMediaStyle large_image_style"> <img loading="lazy" src="/geography/sites/default/files/styles/large_image_style/public/article-image/landscape_ah.jpg?itok=Vk5_PEmb" width="1500" height="844" alt="Fourmile Landscape Cover"> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <h2> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--ucb-related-articles-block paragraph--view-mode--default"> <div>Off</div> </div> </h2> <div>Traditional</div> <div>0</div> <div>On</div> <div>White</div> Thu, 11 Nov 2010 16:39:31 +0000 Anonymous 1620 at /geography /geography/2010/05/01/meredith-gartner-wins-nsf-dissertation-award <span>Meredith Gartner wins NSF Dissertation Award</span> <span><span>Anonymous (not verified)</span></span> <span><time datetime="2010-05-01T21:55:13-06:00" title="Saturday, May 1, 2010 - 21:55">Sat, 05/01/2010 - 21:55</time> </span> <div role="contentinfo" class="container ucb-article-categories" itemprop="about"> <span class="visually-hidden">Categories:</span> <div class="ucb-article-category-icon" aria-hidden="true"> <i class="fa-solid fa-folder-open"></i> </div> <a href="/geography/taxonomy/term/70"> Honors &amp; Awards </a> <a href="/geography/taxonomy/term/60"> News </a> </div> <div role="contentinfo" class="container ucb-article-tags" itemprop="keywords"> <span class="visually-hidden">Tags:</span> <div class="ucb-article-tag-icon" aria-hidden="true"> <i class="fa-solid fa-tags"></i> </div> <a href="/geography/taxonomy/term/376" hreflang="en">Meredith Gartner</a> </div> <div class="ucb-article-content ucb-striped-content"> <div class="container"> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--article-content paragraph--view-mode--default 3"> <div class="ucb-article-row-subrow row"> <div class="ucb-article-text col-lg d-flex align-items-center" itemprop="articleBody"> <div><p>Meredith Gartner has been awarded a Doctoral Dissertation Improvement Award for 2010-2011 from the Geography and Spatial Sciences Program of the National Science Foundation.
