Meterological Model Applications for Estimating Probabilities of Wildland Fires
The National Fire Danger Rating System (NFDRS) indices deduced from RSM 50-km 1-day simulations from January 1998 through December 2003 are used in conjunction with a probability model to determine the expected number of fire occurrences and large fire events. The RSM simulation and forecasts are ongoing experimental products from the Experimental Climate Prediction Center (ECPC) at Scripps Ins...
متن کاملResource Sharing for Control of Wildland Fires
Wildland fires (or wildfires) occur on all continents except for Antarctica. These fires threaten communities, change ecosystems, destroy vast quantities of natural resources and the cost estimates of the damage done annually is in the billions of dollars. Controlling wildland fires is resource-intensive and there are numerous examples where the resource demand has outstripped resource availabi...
متن کاملEstimating Risk Probabilities for Wildland Fires
In 2002. there were 88,458 fires reported on federal lands. These fires burned 6,937,584 acres and 2,381 structures costing taxpayers $1.6 billion for fire suppression. On average, 4,215,089 acres of federal lands burn annually. Forecasting wildland fire risk (occurrence and size) is important to fire managers who desire to know the risks of severe events well in advance of their happening. In ...
متن کاملSmoke Emissions from Wildland Fires
Biomass burning is a major source of emissions to the atmosphere. Some of these emissions may change global climate. This paper uses combustion eff iciency as an independent variable for predicting emission factors for, among others, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, methane, and particulate matter. Other gases are correlated with the release of carbon monoxide. The release of nitrogen and sulfu...
متن کاملModelling smoke transport from wildland fires: a review
Among the key issues in smokemanagement is predicting themagnitude and location of smoke effects. These vary in severity from hazardous (acute health conditions and drastic visibility impairment to transportation) to nuisance (regional haze), and occur across a range of scales (local to continental). Over the years a variety of tools have been developed to aid in predicting smoke effects. This ...
