Book Synopsis Simulating Initial Attack with Two Fire Containment Models by : Romain M. Mees
Book excerpt: Given a variable rate of fireline construction and an elliptical fire growth model, two methods for estimating the required number of resources, time to containment, and the resulting fire area were compared. Five examples illustrate some of the computational differences between the simple and the complex methods. The equations for the two methods can be used and programmed to estimate fire size and perimeter, time-to-containment, and the number of resources required as a function of spread rate.
