Fire science is an inherently applied amalgamation of disciplines which is increasingly developing exceptional disciplinary depth. There is a definitive need for managers and 2 researchers to leverage experiential and theoretical knowledge to address the complex problems facing fire managers today. Management relevance is increasingly used as a criteria for funding and publishing research, but fire management is based on experience in balancing competing resources and human safety, often in politically charged situations or emergency response crises. Applications of research results are as much constrained by the processes of fire management as the information itself. Generating an understanding for how information can be used is a critical benefit to coproduction in the context of fire science. The potential benefits of coproduced fire science are tremendous for both parties: for managers, coproduction empowers them to help solve on-the-ground problems and for scientists, coproduction offers relevance and application of research findings and tools. Simply put, coproduction offers a transformative pathway for wildland fire science and management.
