Developing detailed emission source terms for next-generation wildland fire and smoke modeling tools using improved near-field fire measurements

Developing detailed emission source terms for next-generation wildland fire and smoke modeling tools using improved near-field fire measurements

by Bianca Pickering | Dec 12, 2023

The primary negative impact from prescribed fires to human populations are the respiratory and visual smoke hazards when it is transported in sufficient quantities and compositions. Therefore, smoke management is paramount to prescribed burners. Concerns related to...
Multiscale experimentation and simulation of wildfire spotting

Multiscale experimentation and simulation of wildfire spotting

by Bianca Pickering | Dec 13, 2023

Wildfires pose a significant risk to human and environmental assets around the world, especially in the Mediterranean region and Australia. Firebrands generated in wildfires are one of the most dangerous exposure mechanisms and the main cause of the house and life...
Innovating bushfire behaviour monitoring for future preparedness

Innovating bushfire behaviour monitoring for future preparedness

by Bianca Pickering | Sep 11, 2021

Accurate quantification of heat fluxes is paramount to our understanding of fire, its effects, and fire management strategies. Currently, many studies rely on proxies (e.g., fire severity or fireline intensity) that are estimated after the fire has occurred, making...
Restoration of eucalypt forest in Wilsons Promontory National Park- Implications for forest values and site and landscape flammability

Restoration of eucalypt forest in Wilsons Promontory National Park- Implications for forest values and site and landscape flammability

by Bianca Pickering | May 4, 2022

Wilsons Promontory provides an example of how repeated short interval fires can prevent the regeneration of a Eucalyptus canopy in a range of ecological vegetation classes. The ‘destocking’ of forests can dramatically alter the composition, structure, and function...
