Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ignition Probabilities of Wildland Fuels Based on Simulated Lightning Discharges Fine fuel samples from Northwestern forest areas were subjected to an electric arc discharge that simulated the lightning continuing current. The important fuel state para meters and the ignition probabilities were determined using logistic regression. The ignition probabilities for duff from short-needled coni fer species were found to depend almost entirely on the depth of the fuel bed. In the case of litter and duff from long needled species, ignition probabilities depend mostly on the ovendry fuel moisture. Ignition probabilities also depend on the duration of the are only, with current flow and diameter having no detectable effect. Because the continuing current durations can be fit well by a Weibull distribution for both positive and negative discharges to ground, the probabilities conditional on the current duration can be converted to marginal probabilities per discharge. The necessary integrations were done and the results are presented. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book FIRES

Download or read book FIRES written by Patricia L. Andrews and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A computer program, FIRES: Fire Information Retrieval and Evaluation System, provides methods for evaluating the performance of fire danger rating indexes. The relationship between fire danger indexes and historical fire occurrence and size is examined through logistic regression and percentiles. Historical seasonal trends of fire danger and fire occurrence can be plotted and compared. Methods for defining critical levels of fire danger are provided. The paper includes a review of NFDRS philosophy and application, a description of input and output, and a summary of fire danger rating programs and data bases and their relationship to FIRES.
