'Lest we forget': Canada's major wildland fire disasters of the past, 1825-1938
Description:
This paper provides an overview and summary of nine of the most devastating wildland fire disasters to have occurred in Canada and in some cases, adjoining areas of the United States, in the distant past. The list includes the following cases:...

'Principles of Fire Behavior': a CD-ROM-based interactive multimedia training course
Description:
From the introduction: The development of formalized wildland fire behavior and related training courses for fire suppression personnel began in the mid- to late 1950s (e.g., Cochran 1957). The fundamentals that are taught are essentially the same as...

Name:
1996 Alaskan wildland-urban interface fire - a catalyst for public involvement
Description:
Alaskans in general felt that fires burned communities elsewhere but not in their backyard. That all started to change after the disastrous Miller's Reach Fire in June of 1996. Now Alaskans are thinking about and discussing the hazards and destructive...

Name:
A semi-transparent model of bushfire flames to predict radiant heat flux
Description:
The radiation emitted by a body is related through the Stefan-Boltzmann equation to the temperature of the emitting element. In the case of flame, the emitting elements are carbon particles. Existing models of bushfire flame radiation assume, however,...
