Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the complex relationship between weather factors and the rate at which wildfires spread, particularly examining five days of a catastrophic wildfire in the Boise National Forest in 1955. The author, a weather bureau analyst, presents a detailed analysis of the weather conditions during the fire and compares these with the observed fire behavior. The author establishes distinct patterns of behavior based on weather conditions including temperature, humidity, windspeed, and lapse rates, which they then use to explain the behavior of the Robie Creek Fire. This study provides valuable insights for understanding and predicting the behavior of wildfires, a topic of increasing importance as climate change creates more extreme weather events.
