A quantitative, empirical method for generating fuel-bed maps from plant cover estimates reveals thresholds and one-to-many fuel-to-plant type relationships

Computer-model simulations of wildfire behavior and associated wildfire risk are critically needed to inform the design and implementation of fuels treatments for proactive management of landscape wildfire risks. Available computer-models require maps of fire behavior fuel models (FBFMs) to simulate wildfire behavior,...
