This case study utilized a 10 acre stem-map plot within the Bluewater Forest Restoration Project in order to evaluate the treatment’s impact on forest structure and fire behavior. The analysis evaluated pre-and post-treatment changes in traditional forest inventory metrics, forest spatial arrangement, and simulated fire behavior using WFDS, a model that considers the spatial arrangement of trees on wind and fire behavior.
