Summary
"A very modestly funded program, the JFSP still has supported more than 800 research projects in its 20 years, resulting in thousands of publications. The impact, however, goes well beyond the number of government reports and journal publications. The knowledge produced underpins decisions made by wildland fire and land managers, field practitioners, and policymakers every day. Students and scientists alike grow and contribute to the body of science linked to our understanding of wildland fires. The Fire Science Exchange Network brings scientists and science users together, sharing knowledge and reality from both sides. This 20-year retrospective tells a little bit of the JFSP's story but could never fully convey the importance of the many people that contributed and the value gained by everyone involved with the JFSP during the past 2 decades."
