Incorporating firebrands and spot fires into vorticity-driven wildfire behaviour models
Abstract:Complex modes of fire behaviour resulting from local coupling between the fire and the atmosphere are a significant challenge for rapid operational wildfire spread simulations. While threedimensional fully coupled fire-atmosphere models are able to account for many types of fire behaviour, their computational demands are prohibitive in an operational context. Two-dimensional fire spread models have much lower computational overhead, but are generally not able to account for complex local coupling effects and c… Show more
