Dimensional Analysis on Forest Fuel Bed Fire Spread. [PDF]
A dimensional analysis was performed to correlate the fuel bed fire rate of spread data previously reported in the literature. Under wind condition, six pertinent dimensionless groups were identified, namely dimensionless fire spread rate, dimensionless fuel particle size, fuel moisture content, dimensionless fuel bed depth or dimensionless fuel ...

Forest fires arise from anthropogenic load and lightning activity. The formation of a thunderstorm front is due to the influence of a number of factors, including the emission of aerosol particles from forest fires.

Dispersal Limitation Dominates the Spatial Distribution of Forest Fuel Loads in Chongqing, China
The forest fuel load influences the spreading rate and fire intensity during a forest fire. However, the mechanism of environmental filtering and dispersal limitation that affects the spatial distribution of the forest fuel load remains unclear.

Experimental modeling of spruce needles ignition by a carbonaceous particle heated to high temperatures [PDF]
Forest fires occur as a result of natural and man-made causes. It is known that particles heated to high temperatures are a common source of high temperature.

Sieving and Covering of Wood Chips Improves Storability
Minimising dry matter losses during storage of comminuted forest fuels is desirable from both an economic and a sustainability perspective. This study examined fuel quality and amount of recovered energy during the storage of forest wood chips stored at ...

One of the most determining factors in forest fire behaviour is to characterize forest fuel attributes. We investigated a complex Mediterranean forest type—mountainous Abies pinsapo–Pinus–Quercus–Juniperus with distinct structures, such as broadleaf and ...

To predict fuel moisture contents of Hong-reung arboretum in South Korea
Recently, on the Korean Peninsula, large scale forest fire frequently occurs every year from 2017 (Gangneung, Sanchuck), 2018 (Gosung), 2019 (Sockcho, Gangneung).

Silviculture can facilitate repeat prescribed burn programs with long-term strategies
A significant expansion of prescribed fire activity will be necessary to mitigate growing wildfire hazard in California forests. Forest managers can facilitate this expansion by promoting forest structures that allow for more effective implementation of ...
