(1)The behaviour of the August 1936 Galatea fire in the foothills of the Canadian Rocky Mountains was reconstructed with respect to the rate of spread, frontal-fire intensity and fuel consumption, and illustrates that tree mortality, seed dispersal distance into the burn and…

Wetlands dominated by flora of the Gramineae and Cyperaceae, such as fens and sedge meadows, have been shown to be fire dependent or fire related in their natural history as well as their community composition and structure. Prescribed burning is therefore a useful and often…

Emission factors and the size distribution for smoke particles from prescribed fire are described from data collected by airborne sampling, surface sampling using towers, and combustion hood systems. Emission factors for particulate matter (g/kg) range from 4 to 16 for particles…

Smoke emitted from forest fires in northern California in September 1987 was trapped in a valley by an inversion for 3 weeks. Daily maximum temperatures on the valley floor were more than 15 degrees C below normal for 1 week and more than 5 degrees C below normal for 3 weeks.…
