Coupled atmosphere-wildland fire modelling
Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2009 Simulating the interaction between fire and atmosphere is critical to the estimation of the rate of spread of the fire. Wildfire’s convection (i.e., entire plume) can modify the local meteorology throughout the atmospheric boundary layer and ...

ABWiSE v1.0: toward an agent-based approach to simulating wildfire spread [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2021 Wildfires are a complex phenomenon emerging from interactions between air, heat, and vegetation, and while they are an important component of many ecosystems’ dynamics, they pose great danger to those ecosystems, as well as human life and property ...
