Jay Evans’ project is exploring the requirements for effective and appropriate fire management in north Australian savannas. Jay is using case study examples to describe various resource levels and methods and assess effectiveness in sustainably meeting specified ecological targets. He is also looking at what the specific characteristics of a fire regime are that would best deliver biodiversity conservation outcomes, and what practices, tools and resources might be required for sustainable and efficient implementation and monitoring of such a fire regime.
Jay works as a Bushfire Research Officer at Charles Darwin University’s Darwin Centre for Bushfire Research.
Student project
The goal of this project is to elucidate the requirements for effective and appropriate fire management in north Australian savannas through examination of case study examples describing varying resourcing levels and methods, and assessment of their effectiveness in sustainably meeting specified ecological targets.
