27 September – 2 October 2015, Harvard Forest USA\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A\u00a0final synthesis workshop of the GPWG was held at Harvard Forest in Petersham, Massachusetts. The workshop aim was to bring researchers with paleodata expertise together with global fire modelers in order to improve both the data and the models. Scientists also brought\u00a0expertise in atmospheric chemistry, meteorology, modern ecology, statistics, remote sensing, anthropology, and regional-to-global scale fire history. To see a description\u00a0of who we are,\u00a0take a look at a survey of the participants and their expertise.<\/a><\/p>\n
