The Role of Fuel Bed Geometry and Wind on the Burning Rate of Porous Fuels
The vast majority of wildland fires occur in windy conditions. However, most operational wildland fire models do not account for changes in burning rate or duration due to wind as no simple model exists. To gain some understanding of how wind and fuel bed properties interact to influence the burning...
