Modelling the vertical distribution of canopy fuel load using national forest inventory and low-density airbone laser scanning data.

Modelling the vertical distribution of canopy fuel load using national forest inventory and low-density airbone laser scanning data.

The fuel complex variables canopy bulk density and canopy base height are often used to predict crown fire initiation and spread. Direct measurement of these variables is impractical, and they are usually estimated indirectly by modelling. Recent advances in predicting crown fire behaviour require a...
