Wildfires have many negative outcomes, some of which occur long after the flames and smoke have been extinguished. Once critical example of post-wildfire impacts occurs in the form unstable slopes, which may fail rapidly and with little warning, posing significant hazard and risk to communities already reeling with the impacts of a wildfire event. This work would include being part of a larger project that aims to understand the processes that govern the magnitude and timing of post-wildfire landslides. It would include site visit and sample collection at several of the large wildfire sites from 2020 labor day fires. Some of the samples collected will be tested in the laboratory for changes owing to burning, including soil samples and roots from burned trees. Further, we will install instrumentation for monitoring rainfall and groundwater at these sites. We seek undergraduate help from individuals who have an interest in helping shape this science, both in the field and the lab. This opportunity would include mentorship from geotechnical engineers, hydrologists, geologists and remote sensing experts, providing an excellent opportunity to grow a professional network and play an integral part in impactful research.
