  • Summary

  • On this episode we’ll be talking fire and prescribed burning in metro SA with ecologist Kirstin Abley.

    Spring in Adelaide means that the National Parks and Wildlife Service is kicking off its annual spring prescribed burn program in prep for this summer’s fire danger season.

    You’ll hear from Kirstin Abley who manages the Fire Science and Mapping Team at SA’s Department for Environment and Water. She is an ecologist with a background in threatened species, pest species management and fire ecology.

    The term ‘prescribed burning’ means the controlled use of fire on a particular area of landscape, and we’ll chat with Kirstin about its use in metro SA and its benefits from environmental to community safety.
