GFMC MEETINGS CALENDAR 2020
3rd International Smoke Symposium
20-24 April 2020, Raleigh, North Carolina, U.S.A. with a satellite location at University of California, Davis, U.S.A.
The 3rd International Smoke Symposium will be held in Raleigh, North Carolina with a satellite location at University of California. Building on the previous two editions, this symposium is a venue and international nexus for sharing the latest developments in research, management, and policy around the important topic of wildland fire smoke from wildfires, rangeland fires, and prescribed burns.
The symposium will be an international nexus of research, management and policy with a target audience of: governmental air quality regulators; land managers and fire practitioners; research and extension communities; air quality and fire weather forecasting communities; and climate change researchers.
A virtual/hybrid conference will be incorporated as we did at the first symposia, as well as a second location added. This allows us to expand our attendance and include individuals who cannot travel to the symposium. This will also allow integration of an online learning component, which will support active connection with our audience year-round. Remote participants will be able to view the presentations live and interact with the presenter, the onsite participants and other remote participants – with the assistance of a facilitator. We anticipate a great response from past attendees as well as a new audience.
