20.01.2022 The bushfire crisis of 2019/2020 saw the destruction of over 12 million hectares of land across Eastern Australia, and over 5.4 million hectares in NSW alone. Compared to a typical fire season for NSW which usually averages around 300,000 hectares of burnt land, this past summers fires were unprecedented and have opened up the need for research on what these fires mean for Australia. Over the years catastrophic fires have helped shape Eastern Australia’s l...andscape, resources, and biodiversity.
