  1. 1. The Application of a Wildfire Evacuation Tool to Swedish locations

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Författare :Johannes Jovlunden; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Wildfire evacuations; evacuation simulation; wildfire simulation; WUI-NITY; FARSITE; Prometheus; Swedish wildfire evacuations; geo-spatial data; computer modelling; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : WUI-NITY is a computer modelling program for wildfire evacuation simulations. This thesis examines the applicability of WUI-NITY to locations in Sweden. The program was tested at example locations representing the Swedish landscape. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Applying FARSITE and Prometheus on the Västmanland Fire, Sweden (2014) : fire growth simulation as a measure against forest fire spread : a model suitability study

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :Henrik Hagelin; Matthieu Cluzel; [2016]
    Nyckelord :model suitability; forest fire; fire behaviour; FARSITE; Physical Geography and Ecosystem Science; Västmanland fire; Prometheus; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : En 2014, le comté de Västmanland en Suède fût confronté à un sévère incendie de forêt qui a atteint une taille d’environ 13 000 ha. Les conditions météorologiques du moment ont conduit ce feu à surpasser la capacité d’extinction des services d’ur- gence suédois, le rendant hors de contrôle jusqu’à en devenir le plus grand feu de forêt en Suède depuis le milieu du XXe siècle.

  4. 3. Assessing the Potential of Embedding Vegetation Dynamics into a Fire Behaviour Model : LPJ-GUESS-FARSITE

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :Efren Lopez Blanco; [2014]
    Nyckelord :mediterranean ecosystem; LPJ-GUESS-FARSITE; FARSITE; fire modelling; fire behaviour prediction; dynamic fuel model; geography; fire recurrence; fuel loading; LPJ-GUESS-SPITFIRE; fuel moisture; physical geography; GEM; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Disturbances such as wildfires are key players involved in the shape, structure and function of the ecosystems. Fire is rarely included in Dynamic global vegetation models due to their difficulty in implementing its processes and impacts associated. LÄS MER
