Wildland fire entrainment: The missing link between wildland fire and its environment. [PDF]

open access: yesPNAS Nexus
Abstract Wildfires are growing in destructive power, and accurately predicting the spread and intensity of wildland fire is essential for managing ecological and societal impacts. No current operational models used for fire behavior prediction resolve critical fire-atmospheric coupling or nonlocal influences of the fire environment ...

Effects of climate oscillations on wildland fire potential in the continental United States

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2017
The effects of climate oscillations on spatial and temporal variations in wildland fire potential in the continental U.S. are examined from 1979 to 2015 using cyclostationary empirical orthogonal functions (CSEOFs).

Wildland Fire Dynamics

open access: yes, 2022
Wildland fires are among the most complicated environmental phenomena to model. Fire behavior models are commonly used to predict the direction and rate of spread of wildland fires based on fire history, fuel, and environmental conditions; however, more sophisticated computational fluid dynamic models are now being developed. This quantitative analysis
