Differences in Leaf Flammability, Leaf Traits and Flammability-Trait Relationships between Native and Exotic Plant Species of Dry Sclerophyll Forest
The flammability of plant leaves influences the spread of fire through vegetation. Exotic plants invading native vegetation may increase the spread of bushfires if their leaves are more flammable than native leaves. We compared fresh-leaf and dry-leaf flammability (time to ignition) between 52 native and 27 exotic plant species inhabiting dry sclerophyll forest. We found that mean time to ignit...
متن کاملThe influence of leaf morphology on litter flammability and its utility for interpreting palaeofire.
Studies of palaeofire rely on quantifying the abundance of fossil charcoals in sediments to estimate changes in fire activity. However, gaining an understanding of the behaviour of palaeofires is also essential if we are to determine the palaeoecological impact of wildfires. Here, I use experimental approaches to explore relationships between litter fire behaviour and leaf traits that are obser...

متن کاملFuel vapour composition and flammability properties of E85
Fuel vapour composition and flammability properties of E85 A series of experiments have been conducted to study the flammability characteristics and determine the flammable temperature range of E85 fuel vapours. E85 is a mixture of ethanol and petrol the composition varies depending on time of the year. According to the Swedish standard, SS 155480:2006, the ethanol content may not be below 70 %...
