Good afternoon,

You may have already received an email inviting you to participate in this survey. If you have already completed and submitted the survey, please accept my thanks and delete this email as no further involvement is required. If you have not completed the survey, please consider taking time take to help us with this research. Given that I am interested in hearing from people with varying level of interaction with the California Fire Science Consortium (CFSC), your responses are important—even if your involvement does not go beyond being on the CFSC’s email list.
 
This research examines ways that science is connected to decision-making in land management. Specifically, this project investigates interactions and work conducted between scientists, managers, and practitioners; creation, dissemination, and use of science in land management decisions; and interactions with the CFSC.
 
The survey will take approximately 5-15 minutes to complete. Your name will not be asked and the survey will not be connected to your email address. All responses will be confidential and stored on a password protected computer. The first page of the survey contains information about the study; after clicking next, you will be taken to the survey questions.
 
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me at Kerry.Grimm@nau.edu.

Dr. Kerry Grimm
