Recent attempts to model the flow in very hot fire plumes where radiative transport of heat may significantly modify both the dynamics of the flow and the processes of combustion have met with only partial success. This paper gives an account of a model for the flow in a…

From the text:'Among Forest Service activities, prescribed burning, slash disposal and forest fires present the greatest potential for polluting the air. But at this time we do not know what kind of pollution it is, how dangerous it is, how much of it there is, if it is a…

This study was established to determine: (1) the effect of a prescribed burn during the spring and summer seasons on wildlife habitat with particular emphasis on bobwhite quail food plants, and (2) the relation between various site and stand factors of the loblolly pine…

The Prescribed Burn Fireclimate Survey 1-57 was the first of four prescribed burn surveys in 1957. In this burn we were looking particularly for effects of fire on the wind patterns on the lee side of the fire. Instrumentation, observation techniques, and data collected were…

The importance of fire for the regeneration of the forests has never been so topical as in our days, when increasing use is made of controlled burning in the interests of forestry. In 1955 about 40,000 hectares of forest land, belonging to the Forest Service and the companies,…
