The knowledge of a free-burning fire's potential rate of spread is critical for safe and effective
bushfire control and use. A number of models for predicting the head-fire rate of spread in …

The degree of accuracy in model predictions of wildland fire behaviour characteristics are
dependent on the model's applicability to a given situation, the validity of the model's …

The prediction of fire propagation across landscapes is necessary for safe and effective fire
management. We analyzed the predictive accuracy of models currently used operationally in …

Studies using remote sensing data for fire danger prediction have primarily relied on fire
ignitions data to develop fire danger indices (FDIs). However, these data may only represent …

Executive summary This project undertook a survey of the fire behaviour knowledge
currently used by operational fire behaviour analysts (FBANs) in Australia and New Zealand …

The McArthur grassland and forest fire danger indices, widely used in Australia, predict six
fire danger classes from 'Low-Moderate'to 'Catastrophic.'These classes were linked to the …

Bushfires are serious environmental problems that consistently result in loss of life and
property, and further impact the cultural, economic, social and political stability of the …

In his pioneering work on the common denominators of fire behavior associated with fatal
and near-fatal wildland fires published in 1977, Carl Wilson pointed out that many …

Any rere any milions d'hectàrees són destruïdes pels incendis forestals, no només a Europa
sinó arreu del món, tan sols cal recordar els dramàtics episodis viscuts a Califòrnia i …
