Cool word alert! 🤓Dendrochronology is the science that assigns accurate calendar dates to the yearly growth rings produced by trees. We can learn a lot from tree growth rings, including #FireScience . 🌲

#NationalFoodDay is all about nutrition. Firefighters rely on catering and meal services during wildfire management, particularly in remote locations. Catering services are contracted by the government and involve nutritional requirements to ensure the right balance.

We were fortunate to host Josie and Zoe this summer! These bright @umontana students used their skills to help Interior’s wildland fire management efforts through the William A. Demmer scholarship program. We are excited to see what they do next!

Carbon monoxide (CO) is called the “invisible killer”! It is undetectable to the human senses, so you may not know that you are being exposed. Protect yourself and your family from the dangers of CO!

The @BIAFireForestry Delta Team's hard work in NC is a prime example of how wildland fire personnel also assist with all-hazard efforts such as hurricane recovery. #StrongerTogether #ItTakesAllOfUs
