'Fire dynamics and carbon cycling of miombo woodlands'

with Mat Williams and Casey Ryan

Who am I?• I'm Sam

• I've studied Natural Sciences and Remote Sensing

• I'm currently working in UCL's Remote Sensing Unit.

…and what am I doing here?• Investigating carbon cycling in miombo woodlands in Tanzania

• Heavily disturbed due to agriculture, fuelwood and timber extraction, and fires

• This PhD aims to quantify the effect of fires, and suggest how improved management could increase carbon stocks

• Start with fire maps...From http://www.geos.ed.ac.uk/homes/cryan/miombo/
