Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book introduces a groundbreaking model for predicting the moisture content of fine dead wildland fuels, a critical element in assessing wildfire behavior. Building upon existing moisture models, the author incorporates key factors such as solar radiation, shade, and precipitation, addressing limitations in prior methods, particularly underestimation in northern latitudes with forest canopies and inaccuracy after rainfall events. The model leverages the Canadian Fine Fuel Moisture Code, integrating it with diurnal predictions and accounting for elevation differences. The result is a robust system that accurately predicts fuel moisture content throughout the day and night, considering atmospheric conditions, vegetation, and terrain. The book's significance lies in providing fire managers and field personnel with a reliable tool to evaluate fire situations, plan operational strategies, and enhance overall wildfire management practices.
