Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book presents an extensively researched methodology developed by the author for predicting the spread and intensity of wildfires in forests and rangelands. It emerged from the development of a fire behavior model at the Northern Forest Fire Laboratory and has been refined through its practical application. The volume provides detailed guidance on how to obtain the necessary inputs, calculate fire behavior using nomograms or a calculator, and interpret the results for use in real-time fire management. These predictive methods have been used for decades in automated forms, such as the National Fire Danger Rating System and the slash hazard appraisal system. The author synthesizes extensive research and years of practical experience into a comprehensive guide for understanding and predicting one of nature's most destructive and unpredictable forces.
