Coupled atmosphere-wildland fire modelling

Simulating the interaction between fire and atmosphere is critical to the estimation of the rate of spread of the fire. Wildfire’s convection (i.e., entire plume) can modify the local meteorology throughout the atmospheric boundary layer and consequently affect the fire propagation spe...
