Coupled atmosphere-wildland fire modeling with WRF 3.3 and SFIRE 2011
We describe the physical model, numerical algorithms, and software structure of a model consisting of the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model, coupled with the fire-spread model (SFIRE) module. In every time step, the fire model inputs the surface wind, which drives the fire, and outputs th...
