Wang, Ihme, Linn, Chen, Yang, Sha, Clements, McDanold, Anderson
Background: Wildfires are becoming more severe, so we need improved tools to predict them over a wide range of conditions and scales. One approach towards this goal entails the use of coupled fire/atmosphere modelling tools. Although significant…

Wang, Leung, Qian
Burned areas in the western US have increased ten-fold since 1980s, which are attributable to multiple factors, including increasing heat, changing precipitation patterns, and extended drought. To better understand how these factors contribute to…
