I've been calling myself a pyrogeographer for over two decades, and now we have a journal just for us, led by the fantastic @mattwjones.bsky.social (full disclosure: I sit on the editorial board). We warmly invite you to submit to #Pyrogeography today!

Also I forgot to mention my degree focus was in Pyrogeography, which is an interdisciplinary study of the relationship between fire, humans, and the landscapes they burn in and we live in

Could an Australian city burn like LA has? Yes, and we're not prepared. "The crisis is here," writes David Bowman, professor of pyrogeography and fire science
Fires like those in LA could hit Sydney or Melbourne. How prepared are we? | David Bowman for the Conversation
It’s possible for massive fires to burn in Australian cities. Planning needs to reflect this

If I started doing videos where I travel to Northern California burn scars, take you all through some pyrogeography and analyzing the burn scar, and then analyzing the fire history in the area through mapping and satellite imagery… would you all watch and be interested?

"David Bowman, a professor of pyrogeography who co-authored the study…"

Well, there's a new word.

I am delighted to announce that I am officially a ProDev instructor and educator for Windermere Real Estate, specializing in Pyrogeography! 🔥🌲 To create, build, and sustain resilience to mega fires, we must find solutions outside the box. Stay tuned; it’s just the start of this project.

Honoured to receive the 2025 Philip Leverhulme Prize in Geography for research on pyrogeography, #wildfires, Earth system science, and #climate change impacts.

So grateful for the mentorship, collaboration, and shared curiosity that make this work possible. I owe a lot of people a lot of beer! 🙂

Very glad to see this hot 🔥 journal! It fills what for me always felt like a gap in the fire research journal landscape. Happy to follow along and consider for future publications! #pyrogeography #wildfires 🌏🧪⚒️

Also, if you're not following @mattwjones.bsky.social please give him a follow.

He's the Editor-In-Chief of the new journal Pyrogeography!
More amazing teamwork led by the fantastic @mattwjones.bsky.social to develop a global database of prescribed fire.
New study from my group with stellar international team.

A multi-national dataset of prescribed #fires compiled and standardised from national records, with contemporaneous #weather conditions, land cover, fuel bed type, ++, included with each record.

Global and local papers are welcomed but #geography is at the heart of the journal - studies should emphasise how their findings or ideas scale to broader regional geographies.

🔥🌳Study reconstructs 10,000 years of Amazonian #fire #history using dated charcoal. Fires rarely occur without human ignition; they've spread from forest edges to the interior ~2,000 years ago, then declined in two phases - around 600-700 years ago, and again after European contact. ⤵️

Sharing our new open-access paper in J. Pyrogeography on the 2024 Las Tablas Fire near Valparaiso, Chile that killed >135 people. It was the deadliest wildfire globally since the 2008-2009 Black Saturday Fires in Australia. We ask: what made it so deadly?

- Source of ignition is a major driver of fire activity, along w/ housing and climate; and trends differ by source over time & across regions. Ignitions deserve more attention, especially on red flag days.

My take on social media:
I'm here to interact with people who are here to interact with people or post about topics I'm interested in (books, science, pyrogeography).

I'm not here to interact with people who are trying to farm my clicks for clout/money or whatever.
