It's #WildfireAwarenessMonth! We're attending the Oregon Fire Chiefs Association conference to share how firefighters can use our wildfire detection cameras. Learn how to sign up for camera control credentials and receive alerts when a fire is detected at ohaz.uoregon.edu/wildfire-camer….
The Swift Quake study used data from the Pacific Northwest Seismic Network, which is cooperatively operated by @USGS, @UW, and us! @PNSN1 reduces impacts of earthquakes in OR and WA by providing accurate info about earthquakes to scientists, engineers, planners, and the public.
Wildfires are expensive & impact many people’s lives. Here are some annual wildfire stats that put their prevalence in perspective. What stat stands out to you? Comment below. ow.ly/b2H850RsVsk #WildfireAwarenessMonth
May is Wildfire Awareness Month. In 2023, over 80% of ODF's fires were human-caused. Now is the time to take the extra step and help prevent the next large wildfire in Oregon. For more information on wildfire prevention, visit keeporegongreen.org.
Not All Flame's the Same! Take a journey of fire throughout OR with @OSUFireProgram 5/2 at 11am Free webinar registration, beav.es/cL3 Understanding fire’s role in the place you live can help you become better prepared for fire & smoke.
Our very own director and University of Oregon Associate Professor of Earth Sciences, Dr. Diego Melgar, will be presenting tomorrow, followed by other distinguished CRESCENT staff on May 1st and May 2nd.
Cascade volcanoes at normal background levels of activity this week: usgs.gov/programs/VHP/v…. #MountStHelens' south side visitors explore Ape Cave lava tube. The tube was created during Castle Creek time, 2025-1700 yrs ago, an unusual period when the volcano erupted basalt.
Wildfires are caused by a spark in the presence of fuel and oxygen. Strong winds, high temperatures, low humidity and drought conditions can further impact the fire’s spread. To stay #WeatherReady and protect yourself from wildfires, visit weather.gov/safety/wildfire
If there is critical fire weather in your area, listen to your local officials and take immediate precautions to stay safe. Pack your emergency go-bag with emergency supplies, know your evacuation routes, and remove flammable debris within 30 feet of your home.
The Cascadia Subduction Zone of the Pacific Northwest is comprised of a collection of major geographic features, including the subducting plate, the subduction plate boundary, the Coast Range, the Cascades Mountain Range, and the Puget-Willamette lowlands.
Happy #FieldWorkFriday! Our field technicians upgraded BAND this week. This seismic monitoring site is in the Pacific Northwest Seismic Network (@PNSN1). We overhauled the sensor enclosure and camouflaged it to protect a nearby airstrip from glares. The site is now back online!
The Green Mountain wildfire camera is now live! Thank you @BLMOregon for sponsoring this new site. BLM currently hosts 16 cameras in Oregon. We plan to install another camera on Acty Mountain this year. Learn more: blm.gov/announcement/l… Watch cameras: alertoregon.live
Wildfire cameras enable firefighters to detect and suppress wildfires more quickly. We have deployed 46 cameras in Oregon and plan to operate 75 by 2025. Learn more about our camera network at ohaz.uoregon.edu/wildfire-camer…. Watch live camera feeds at alertoregon.live.

Cascade volcanoes at normal background levels of activity this week: usgs.gov/programs/VHP/v…. Since the access road to #MountStHelens' Johnston Ridge Observatory was closed by a landslide in May 2023, mountain goats have taken to the trails & are enjoying the peace and quiet.
We have installed a new wildfire detection camera on Green Mountain Lookout in Lake County! This is our first deployment of 2024 and our first augmented fire lookout. In addition to the camera, a human lookout will continue to staff the Green Mountain fire tower. #FieldWorkFriday
