Fire and Climate in the Rwenzori Mountain National Park
REFNo: NS531ES

To develop a long-term record of fire in high-elevation areas of the Rwenzori Mountain National Park. With this record, we will investigate the relationship between fire and climate change through time. Our ultimate objective is to determine whether changes in air temperature cause changes in fire frequency through time. This will allow us to better predict changes in fire regime in the future.
