Complex Three-Dimensional Mathematical Model of the Ignition of a Coniferous Tree via a Cloud-to-Ground Lightning Discharge: Electrophysical, Thermophysical and Physico-Chemical Processes

Thunderstorms are the main natural source of forest fires. The ignition mechanism of trees begins with the impact of cloud-to-ground lightning discharge. A common drawback of all predicting systems is that they ignore the physical mechanism of forest fire as a result of thunderstorm activity. The pu...
