Open-Source Fire Science

Products PYregence

Our PRODUCTS

Through data integration, algorithm development, and modeling validation, Pyregence has produced and refined a suite of interoperable models and applications all based on rigorous peer-reviewed research.

WILDFIRE FORECASTING APPLICATIONS

Turning wildfire science into real-world decision support

Pyregence develops tools that help land managers, utilities, agencies, and communities anticipate wildfire behavior, assess risk, and plan effective mitigation strategies. From near-term forecasting with PyreCast to long-term fuels and climate scenario analysis, our applications translate cutting-edge research into actionable insights. Explore interactive platforms, data services, and decision-support tools designed to improve preparedness and resilience across diverse landscapes.

SIMULATION MODELS

Open, transparent, and scientifically rigorous wildfire modeling

Pyregence supports and connects powerful models to simulate how fires behave and evolve across landscapes and time. These models help scientists and planners better predict wildfire behavior, understand vegetation changes, and assess long-term risks, supporting smarter decisions from the ground up.

SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH

Research

Pyregence is built on open, peer-reviewed science that advances wildfire forecasting, emissions modeling, forest dynamics, and decision support. Research conducted by the Pyregence Consortium fills critical knowledge gaps in fire weather patterns, smoldering combustion, post-drought fuel dynamics, the impacts of megafires on ecosystems, and more. These insights, published in leading journals and applied across local, regional, state, and federal planning efforts, drive innovation in fire science and climate resilience.
