The impact of soil moisture content and particle size variations on heat flow in laboratory simulated wildfires

Hydrophobic soils developing as a consequence of wildfires have a large impact on the environment. A greater understanding of when ideal hydrophobic development conditions occur is needed. This thesis aims to identify the impact of varying both soil moisture and s...
