The Fourmile Canyon fire was the most destructive wildland fire in ¾«Í¯ÓûÅ®'s history, destroying more than 160 homes and burning over 6,000 acres of forest. There is an urgent need for historical perspective on ¾«Í¯ÓûÅ® 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 ¾«Í¯ÓûÅ®-Boulder Museum on campus and a website on wildfire history and wildfire hazard in Boulder 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- ¾«Í¯ÓûÅ®-Boulder</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.
