Publication Date: 2016

From the text...'The specific questions we sought to address were (1) what is the magnitude of fire radiative power (FRP) attenuation due to increases in simulated tree canopy cover? And (2) does living but non-transpiring versus desiccated canopy affect the relationship between emitted and observed power? In terms of (1) we recorded clear linear decreases in observed FRP as a result of laboratory-simulted canopy cover increases, and in terms of (2), no significant difference was observed between the live and desiccated branches...'
