Hawaii Fire Portal
The Hawaii Fire Portal provides information about fire science and technology relevant to Hawaii. Our goal is to provide "one-stop shopping" for resource managers, decision makers, scientists, students, and communities who want access to the results of efforts to understand and manage fire and fuels on lands in Hawaii. Content may also be relevant to other Pacific Islands.
