Key SCORCH disciplines representing the expertise needed to carry out the mission of solutions-driven research and community engagement
Our internal advisory board is made up of key SCORCH disciplines that contribute expertise needed to carry out the mission of solutions-driven research and community engagement. SCORCH is organized around three developing Research Focus Groups: 1) Extreme weather events and human health outcomes, 2) Forecasting and Early Warning, and 3) Adaptive Responses to the Built Environment. Key UArizona personnel representing the cutting-edge UArizona schools, centers, and programs contribute to the planning and success of the SCORCH in these areas. This structure facilitates collaboration and expansion of SCORCH activities.
