Attention-Based Wildland Fire Spread Modeling Using Fire-Tracking Satellite Observations

open access: yesFire, 2023
Modeling the spread of wildland fires is essential for assessing and managing fire risks. However, this task remains challenging due to the partially stochastic nature of fire behavior and the limited availability of observational data with high spatial ...

Reconstruction of fire regimes through integrated paleoecological proxy data and ecological modeling

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2015
Fire is a key ecological process affecting vegetation dynamics and land cover. The characteristic frequency, size, and intensity of fire are driven by interactions between top-down climate-driven and bottom-up fuel-related processes.

Modeling Low Intensity Fires: Lessons Learned from 2012 RxCADRE

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2021
Coupled fire-atmosphere models are increasingly being used to study low-intensity fires, such as those that are used in prescribed fire applications. Thus, the need arises to evaluate these models for their ability to accurately represent fire spread in ...

Analysis of Fire-Induced Circulations during the FireFlux2 Experiment

open access: yesFire, 2023
Despite recent advances in both coupled fire modeling and measurement techniques to sample the fire environment, the fire–atmosphere coupling mechanisms that lead to fast propagating wildfires remain poorly understood.

Assessing Wildfire Exposure to Communities and Protected Areas in Portugal

open access: yesFire, 2021
During the 2017 wildfire season in Portugal, unprecedented episodes burned 6% of the country’s area and underscored the need for a long-term comprehensive solution to mitigate future wildfire disasters.

From Biophysical to Integrate-and-Fire Modeling [PDF]

open access: yesNeural Computation, 2021
This article proposes a methodology to extract a low-dimensional integrate-and-fire model from an arbitrarily detailed single-compartment biophysical model. The method aims at relating the modulation of maximal conductance parameters in the biophysical model to the modulation of parameters in the proposed integrate-and-fire model.

Wildland Fire Detection and Monitoring Using a Drone-Collected RGB/IR Image Dataset

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2022
Current forest monitoring technologies including satellite remote sensing, manned/piloted aircraft, and observation towers leave uncertainties about a wildfire’s extent, behavior, and conditions in the fire’s near environment, particularly ...

Burn Severity in Canada's Mountain National Parks: Patterns, Drivers, and Predictions

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2022
Fine‐scale estimation of burn severity in the Canadian Rocky Mountain region with mixed‐severity fires is of substantial implications but still lacking.
