CIRES Center for Education Engagement and Evaluation (CEEE) went live for a special edition of Science Show & Share featuring Dr. Camille Stevens-Rumann, a fire ecologist whose research focuses on how forests recover after a wildfire. Dr. Stevens-Rumann will discuss her past and present work in the US Rocky Mountains, including how climate change is making it harder for fires to grow back after wildfires. This webinar is perfect for middle and high school classrooms, especially those that have engaged with our Data Puzzle resources.
