The rate of rise of the convection columns above experimental fires depends on the rate of average atmospheric temperature lapse in the lower 1,000 meters. The type of fuels used in these fires will probably produce a mass fire if the burning area is 27 plus or minus 2 hectares…

Pollutants sampled during the burning of 30 lb ponderosa pine fuel beds yielded emission factors for CO, hydrocarbon gases, and particulate matter of 146, 8.4, and 9.1 lb/ton of fuel, respectively. When similar beds were treated with diammonium phosphate flame retardant, these…
