Estimation of the vertical distribution of the fine canopy fuel in Pinus sylvestris stands using low density LiDAR data

Canopy fuel load, canopy bulk density and canopy base height are structural variables used to predict crown fire initiation and spread. Direct measurement of these variables is not functional, and they are usually estimated indirectly by modelling. Advances in fire behaviour modelling require accura...
