Propose a Workshop, Talk, or Special Session
Join global experts and practitioners at the forefront of wildland fire and smoke science
for the 2026 International Smoke Symposium. This premier event convenes air quality
specialists, fire professionals, health scientists, policymakers, and technology
innovators to explore the complex challenges and emerging solutions surrounding wildland
and agricultural smoke.
What to Expect:
· Cutting-edge research on smoke tracking, modeling, and health impacts.
· Strategies for field management, communication, and response.
· Insights into social, ecological, and economic implications.
· Training opportunities for operational professionals.
· A showcase of innovative tools, technologies, and policy approaches.
We acknowledge travel limitations, restrictions and constraints due to budgets, bans and
environmental choices so we are offering the opportunity to participate and present

Call for Presentations
We are now accepting proposals for presentations for the 4th International Smoke Symposium
(ISS4). ISS4 aims to address a variety of wildland smoke related issues, through topics
that relate to methods for tracking, modeling and inventory, social implications, health
implications for the public and firefighter communities, communication, current and future
research needs, and practical field management and response techniques for smoke.

Call for Special Sessions
Special Sessions are designed to foster engagement and depth and will be one hour in
length. Formats may include a series of short presentations on a focused topic followed by
discussion and Q&A, or an interactive deep dive into a specific issue. These sessions
are not intended for single lectures—they must encourage dialogue, collaboration, and
multiple perspectives. Special sessions should be fully developed before the submission
deadline - including abstracts from each presenter included in the session.

Venue
ISS4 will be held at the newly built Leigh Perkins Conservation Education Center, located
on the main campus of Tall Timbers Research Station in the Red Hills region between
Thomasville, Georgia, and Tallahassee, Florida.
This new facility is named in honor of Leigh Perkins, former Tall Timbers Board member and
the man responsible for growing Orvis from a niche sporting company into one of the
world’s most respected outdoor brands. When Leigh passed in 2021, the Perkins Family
quickly embraced the vision for a state-of-the-art conservation education facility at Tall
Timbers as an excellent fit for Leigh’s conservation ethic and drive to help connect
people with the outdoors.
