    Nyckelord :fire; organic layer consumption; Canadian Fire Weather Index FWI ; ; Sweden;

    Sammanfattning : The occurrence and thickness of organic layers in forests can significantly influence fire behavior. Complete understanding of the consumption of these layers during fire events is a knowledge gap that exists in southern Sweden. In this region, sixteen burned sites were measured for fermentation and humus layer thickness. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Fördjupningsstudie: Canadian Forest Fire Behavior Prediction System

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik; Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet

    Sammanfattning : This thesis comprises a review of the Canadian Forest Fire Behavior Prediction System (FBP) with the aim to introduce its main structure, function, limitations and operational features to the Swedish wildland fire community. In short, FBP is a system with which simulations can be made to predict the behavior of wildland fires. LÄS MER
