9780366969357 - logging slash flammability after five years (classic reprint) von fahnestock, george r. (1 Ergebnisse)

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the evolution of logging slash flammability over five years, examining the impact of aging on the physical characteristics and fire behavior of nine northern Rocky Mountain tree species. The author meticulously documents the changes in slash fuel components, continuity, depth, and density, providing a comprehensive understanding of how these factors influence rate of fire spread and intensity. Through rigorous experimentation, the book quantifies the decline in flammability over time, highlighting the critical role of fine fuel components and their elevation above the ground in determining slash hazard. The insights gained from this research are invaluable for forest managers, firefighters, and policymakers seeking to mitigate the risks associated with logging slash and protect both human communities and ecosystems from wildfires.
