Dr Grant Williamson is a landscape ecologist and spatial scientist, whose previous research, has included the impacts of mosquito control and climate change on mangrove communities, the climatic and human drivers of wildfires and fire danger across Australia, and the dynamics and human health impact of smoke wildfires and prescribed fires on human health. He completed his PhD at the University of Adelaide, and has worked in Darwin and Hobart, and is currently a post-doctoral fellow for the Centre for Air Quality & Health Research and Evaluation (CAR-CRE).

Biography

Grant completed his doctorate at the University of Adelaide, studying the impact of fine-scaled rainfall regime across a climate gradient on adaption in native Australian grasses. He took up a post-doctoral position at Charles Darwin University in an ARC-linkage project studying the impact of mosquito control measures on mosquito-borne disease on humans, and the ecology of the mangrove swamps in which they breed.

Grant moved to the University of Tasmania in 2008 and took up a post-doctoral position on the ARC-linkage Biomass Smoke Project, continuing his interest in the nexus between human health and ecology, studying the impact of smoke pollution from landscape fire on human health, and developing predictive models for smoke exposure.

During his career at the University of Tasmania, Grant was part of the NERP Landscapes and Policy hub, researching landscape-scale human-ecological interactions in the Australian Alps and Tasmanian Midlands. Grant received a post-doctoral scholarship from the Centre for Air Quality & Health Research and Evaluation at the University of Sydney in 2014 to continue his work studying human exposure to smoke pollution from landscape fires, and now a research fellow working with the NSW Advanced Bushfire Research Hub, developing modelling tools to understand fire history, and how Australian fire regimes and vegetation will shift under climate change.

Research Themes

Grant's research aligns to the University's research themes of Better Health and Environment, Resources and Sustainability, including the increasingly recognized nexus between the fields of human health and landscape ecology. Grant's current research into biomass smoke aims to improve our estimates of human exposure to the fine particulate pollution produced by landscape fires and wood heater usage. Smoke exposure can have significant impacts on human health for sufferers of asthma and cardio-vascular diseases, and biomass smoke is a significant contributor to atmospheric aerosol load in south-eastern Australia, where humans live in close proximity to vegetation that experiences significant wildfires in the summer, and undergoes prescribed burning to reduce fire risk in winter. In order to better understand the link between smoke exposure and human health impacts, we need improved models of smoke emissions from biomass burning, and smoke transport patterns. Grant is utilizing remotely-sensed data and geospatial modelling methods to improve empirical models of smoke exposure and physical atmospheric transport models, to better inform this epidemiological research.

Grant's research interests also include adapting real-time environmental data sources and the computing cloud to improve ecological and health knowledge. Grant has developed a real-time Forest Fire Danger Index map adopted by the Tasmanian Fire Service, a heat-wave warning system for the Tasmanian Department of Health and Human Resources, and is a lead developer on the Sense-T AirRater air pollution and pollen alert app project.

Collaboration

Grant has previously collaborated with NASA and South Dakota State University on a project understanding the dynamics of fire weather and occurrence using remotely sensed data. He was involved in the Fire and Vegetation team of the NERP Landscapes and Policy Hub, a multidisciplinary project involving the University of Tasmania, the Australian National University, Murdoch University, Griffith University and Charles Sturt University. Grant is currently working on the 'Bushfires, smoke and people' ARC linkage grant, a large project involving the University of Tasmania, the British Columbia Centre for Disease Control, the Bushfire CRC, the CSIRO and a number of state Environmental Protection Authorities. He is also collaborating with the CSIRO and Victorian health authorities in modelling human exposure to smoke from the 2014 Hazelwood coal mine fire.

The legal, technical and administrative framework for public release of Firewatch (2019)$22,355

Description: 'Fireboss' is a mobile phone application developed under the Tasmanian Bushfire Mitigation Grants Program 2016 to provide information about bushfire preparation and prevention, and real-time and future risk of bushfires. The app was tested by over 150 users drawn from TFS staff and volunteer brigades, DPFEM, Parks and Wildlife Service and selected community stakeholders across Tasmania. The response from testers was overwhelmingly positive with > 80% of respondents to a post-testing evaluation survey agreeing the app was useful, made it easy to find fire information, and improved awareness of fire danger. The current project will complete the necessary steps to prepare the app for public release. There are four key objectives of this project: (1) Develop operating guidelines, (2) Determine running and support costs and resources, (3) Upgrade and prepare the app for public release, and (4) Establish a framework for ongoing community and stakeholder engagement.

An assessment of the viability of prescribed burning as a management tool under a changing climate - Stage 2 (2018 - 2019)$136,533

Description: Recent research by the ACE CRC suggests there may be fewer opportunities for prescribed burning in the future as autumn and spring become warmer and drier. Changes to vegetation may also need to be considered when planning fuel management. In workshops associated with the research, Tasmanian fire managers identified several aspects that would enhance the research to help them make decisions about the timing of prescribed burning in the future. These are to:i)assess changes in plant productivity throughout the year, to indicate potential changes to fuel growth in the future;ii)further refine the vegetation model to incorporate fire intensity and improve the representation of fuel treatments;iii)model the future distributions of target species and vegetation communities (eg. Athrotaxis, alpine/subalpine communities) that may not persist under climate change;iv)assess combinations of extreme events that may occur simultaneously or successively to influence bushfire behaviour or amplify its severity in the autumn/spring periods.

Understanding the impacts of high-intensity fire on the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area (2017 - 2020)$16,501

Description: The Tasmania Wilderness World Heritage Area is characterised by its richness of natural and cultural values. However, the increase in large, high-intensity fires as a result of climate change and cessation of Aboriginal management presents a risk to the survival of native species. The context of this study is the 2016 bushfires in Tasmania, which had significant impacts on endemic species and peatlands across the Heritage Area. This project aims to advance knowledge in the fire ecology of temperate forest landscapes by understanding the spatial distribution of fire severity and the biological response of endemic species to large-scale, severe wildfires.
