Details

Fire smoke is no longer a seasonal anomaly but an ongoing exposure challenge for communities across Australia and New Zealand. From large-scale landscape burning and extreme wildfire events to emissions from winter solid fuel heating, smoke impacts are increasingly shaping regulatory, health and community responses. This workshop establishes the technical foundation for a future CASANZ series, examining how smoke exposure is estimated, interpreted and applied in policy and practice. It brings together expertise across modelling, monitoring and public health to support cross-disciplinary discussion on smoke exposure.
