Dr. Calum Cunningham is a Research Fellow in Physical Pyrogeography at the University of Tasmania's School of Natural Sciences. His work focuses on climate change impacts on fire regimes, invasive species management, and wildlife ecology. He holds a PhD from the University of Tasmania (2020) and a Fulbright Fellowship (2021-2022) for research on wolf ecology in Washington state. Cunningham collaborates globally with scientists and land managers to translate research into practical conservation strategies. Education: PhD in Biological Sciences, University of Tasmania (2015-2020) Bachelor of Science (Hons I) & Natural Resources, University of Adelaide (2010-2013) Research Interests: Climate-fire interactions, pyrogeography, invasive species control, and the ecological consequences of apex predator declines. His work integrates field research, remote sensing, and statistical modeling to address real-world challenges like wildfire management and biodiversity loss. Grants & Awards: Fulbright Fellowship (2021-2022) Holsworth Wildlife Research Endowment Grant ($18,750; 2016-2021) Supervision: Currently mentoring doctoral students on bushfire risk management and fallow deer impacts in Tasmania. His advisory work bridges academic research and applied conservation. Media & Engagement: Regular contributor to media discussions on wildfire risks and climate change. His research has been featured in over 260 news outlets and policy sources.

Professor David M.J.S. Bowman is a Professor of Environmental Change Biology in the School of Natural Sciences at the University of Tasmania, holding a research chair in Pyrogeography and Fire Science. He serves as Director of the university's transdisciplinary Fire Centre, where he pioneers integrative frameworks connecting human, physical, and biological dimensions of fire across geological timescales and global spatial scales. His research program centers on flammability (dominant fingerprint at 12%), with core expertise spanning biogeography , fire ecology , pyrogeography , and fire management policy . Bowman develops synthetic approaches to landscape burning that bridge historical fire patterns with future climate projections, emphasizing transdisciplinary solutions for wildfire-prone ecosystems. His work critically examines vegetation dynamics, human-fire interactions, and smoke health impacts through large-scale empirical studies. Recent publications reveal intensifying focus on climate-fire interactions, particularly wildfire behavior in the wildland-urban interface and lightning-driven fire regimes in Tasmania. His 2025 research demonstrates how near-term warming amplifies fire intensity, addresses scaling challenges from plant traits to landscape fire behavior, and analyzes extreme wildfire event drivers through fire size and simultaneity metrics. Scientific recognition includes: Top Cited Scholar 2025 As Fire Centre Director, Bowman leads a globally connected research ecosystem with over 1,900 collaborators, indicating substantial grant acquisition capacity and mentorship of emerging scientists. His transdisciplinary leadership bridges academic research with fire management policy development, though specific grant mechanisms and student supervision details remain unreported in source materials.

Professor David Bowman is a leading academic in pyrogeography and fire science at the University of Tasmania, where he holds a research chair in the School of Natural Sciences. His work bridges human, physical, and biological dimensions of fire across scales, with a focus on transdisciplinary approaches. He earned a PhD (1984) and DSc (2001) from the University of Tasmania, and has held fellowships at institutions like Harvard and Oxford. Bowman directs the Fire Centre, a research hub addressing wildfire impacts and management. His research spans field ecology, molecular techniques, and social analysis, emphasizing adaptation to climate-driven fire regimes. Notable contributions include studies on fire regimes, peatland recovery, and community resilience. He has secured over $36M in funding, leading projects on fire behavior, health impacts of smoke, and Indigenous fire practices. Bowman advises governments and media, and his publications span high-impact journals like Science and Nature. His work aims to improve fire management policies globally.

Cathelijne Stoof serves as an Adjunct Associate Professor specializing in Pyrogeography within the School of Sciences at the European University of Cyprus, where she contributes to interdisciplinary research at the intersection of fire science and environmental systems. Her research focuses on spatial and temporal fire patterns across landscapes, examining fire behavior in relation to climate change, land management practices, and ecological resilience. This work bridges physical geography, environmental modeling, and earth observation techniques to advance predictive fire science. While specific advisory roles and grant details remain undocumented in available sources, her position within the School of Sciences situates her within an institution actively engaged in international research collaborations, as evidenced by recent hosting of the AAATE 2025 International Conference on Assistive Technology and partnerships with entities like the Cyprus Digital Security Authority.
