Fractal properties of forest fires in Amazonia as a basis for modelling pan-tropical burnt area
Current methods for modelling burnt area in dynamic global vegetation models (DGVMs) involve complex fire spread calculations, which rely on many inputs, including fuel characteristics, wind speed and countless parameters. They are therefore susceptible to large uncertainties through error propagati...
