Description
Interest in predictive models of wildland fire spread has existed since the late 1930's, and a substantial body of related information has has been published on such models. The culmination of this accumulated knowledge is encapsulated in the U.S. fire prediction system. The fire spread predictions used by the current system are based on a semiempirical formulation first presented by Rothermel in 1972.
