This book offers a comprehensive mathematical model for understanding and predicting the rate of spread and intensity of wildland fires. The model considers various fuel properties and environmental factors, enabling users to analyze and manage fire hazards under different conditions. The author, a pioneering researcher in fire behavior, provides a detailed account of the model's development, evaluation, and application. By integrating field observations with mathematical principles, this book not only advances the scientific understanding of fire spread but also offers a practical tool for land management and fire prevention strategies.
