Toward Remote Sensing of Wildland Fuel Combustibility: A Pilot Study Evaluating an Experimental Method to Link Fuel Spectral Reflectance with Fire Behaviour and Emissions

Remote Sensing
While remote sensing has been widely used to estimate vegetation biochemical and structural properties, relatively little work has systematically and experimentally linked vegetative fuel spectral reflectance to independently measured fuel combustibility,
