Book Estimating Live Fuel Moisture for the 1978 National Fire Danger Rating System  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Estimating Live Fuel Moisture for the 1978 National Fire Danger Rating System Classic Reprint written by Robert E. Burgan and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-18 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Estimating Live Fuel Moisture for the 1978 National Fire Danger Rating System If moisture content is high enough, living fuels will not burn, which in effect reduces the available fuel load. However, as the moisture content of the living fuels decreases, at some point these fuels can be desiccated and ignited within the flaming front, effectively increasing the available fuel load. The live fuels are then no longer a heat sink, but a heat source. Depending on the amount of live material, a rapid and often significant increase in fire intensity and spread can occur (fig. Inclusion of these live fuel moisture effects improves the seasonal response of fire danger ratings. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Wildland Fire Danger Estimation and Mapping

Download or read book Wildland Fire Danger Estimation and Mapping written by Emilio Chuvieco and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2003 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book presents a wide range of techniques for extracting information from satellite remote sensing images in forest fire danger assessment. It covers the main concepts involved in fire danger rating, and analyses the inputs derived from remotely sensed data for mapping fire danger at both the local and global scale. The questions addressed concern the estimation of fuel moisture content, the description of fuel structural properties, the estimation of meteorological danger indices, the analysis of human factors associated with fire ignition, and the integration of different risk factors in a geographic information system for fire danger management.
