“…Most flammability experiments have been conducted in the laboratory on small plant components (i.e. leaves, leaf litter, small twigs or needles, bark, woody debris) due to ease of sample collection and manipulation during burning (Ganteaume, Jappiot, Lampin, Guijarro, & Hernando, 2013;Grootemaat, Wright, Bodegom, Cornelissen, & Shaw, 2017;Kauf, Fangmeier, Rosavec, & Španjol, 2015;Mason, Frazao, Buxton, & Richardson, 2016;Zhao, Logtestijn, Werf, Hal, & Cornelissen, 2018). It has been argued that these fine-level laboratory tests do not scale up to predict canopy flammability or crown fire in the field, at least in part because they do not adequately account for plant architecture (Fernandes & Cruz, 2012).…”
