Wildland Fire Behaviour Case Studies and Fuel Models for Landscape-Scale Fire Modeling

This work presents the extension of a physical model for the spreading of surface fire at landscape scale. In previous work, the model was validated at laboratory scale for fire spreading across litters. The model was then modified to consider the structure of actual vegetation and was included in t...
