The Bushfire and Natural Hazards CRC conducted partner-driven natural hazard research and has moved to Natural Hazards Research Australia @hazardsresearch.
The end of June marks the end of funding for the CRC, but it's not goodbye from us just yet.
Here's an update from @ceo_bnhcrc Dr Richard Thornton about the short term future of the CRC and the long-term future of the new #naturalhazards research centre: https://t.co/KPbXQ64Xht
If you want to keep track of all the great research and products from the CRC, don't forget to follow the Twitter account for Natural Hazards Research Australia @HazardsResearch - your new national centre for natural hazard resilience and risk reduction. See you over there!
@CruxConstellat1@SenKimCarr The work of the Bushfire and Natural Hazards CRC has been incorporated into a new national centre called Natural Hazards Research Australia, funded for 10 years by the government. Be sure to catch all the latest news and updates at our new Twitter account @hazardsresearch
Great to hear from @bnhcrc's Dr Kamaljit Sangha @RIELresearch@CDUni today at the @AFACnews webinar on economic costs of #naturalhazards in north Aus. Understanding $ losses better can inform new polices to help communities, esp remote Indigenous communities, & reduce costs.
Fire + climate science was the theme of a @dfat webinar b/w Australia, Mexico, Peru, Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Columbia, Paraguay, Panama, Ecuador, Guatemala + Uruguay.
Our CEO @Dr_R_Thornton and @CSIRO presented Australian bushfire science to fire managers in Cent/Sth America.
Multiple City Councils asked the @bnhcrc to evaluate their policies in terms of resilience. They were seeking answers to the question: To what extent do our council policies support resilience for emergencies or disasters? Report here: https://t.co/TL80uN3tj4
How comprehensive is urban planning in Victoria and can it be used to enhance #disaster risk reduction and #resilience?
New research with @UniMelb presents opportunities for improving the resilience of existing and future settlements in Victoria: https://t.co/AcJghxNyKN
Why were the some of the 2019-20 #bushfires so extreme?
Our new research with @BOM_au led by Dr Mika Peace @BOM_SA combines fire and atmosphere modelling to help us understand why the fire behaviour was so dangerous: https://t.co/H2XfXe2QoZ
