Modeling Smoke Plume-Rise and Dispersion from Southern United States Prescribed Burns with Daysmoke

Modeling Smoke Plume-Rise and Dispersion from Southern United States Prescribed Burns with Daysmoke

We present Daysmoke, an empirical-statistical plume rise and dispersion model for simulating smoke from prescribed burns. Prescribed fires are characterized by complex plume structure including multiple-core updrafts which makes modeling with simple plume models difficult. Daysmoke accounts for plum...
