Comparative Analysis of Machine Learning-Based Predictive Models for Fine Dead Fuel Moisture of Subtropical Forest in China [PDF]
The moisture content of fine dead surface fuel in forests is a crucial metric for assessing its combustibility and plays a pivotal role in the early warning, occurrence, and spread of forest fires. Accurate prediction of the moisture content of fine dead
