Fuel characteristics of arctic plant species and simulated plant community flammability by Rothermel's model
The relative fuel-potentials of 12 northern tundra and forest–tundra ground species of the Mackenzie delta area were evaluated from measured fuel characteristics by simulating a test fire with the Rothermel (1972) fire behavior model. The relative importance of the fuel parameters were in decreasing...
