dc.description.abstract
The FireBeaters Phase II project was established with three month’s funding to address the following work packages:
1. Construct a model of live fuel moisture.
2. Extend small-scale ignition tests in moorland fuels.
3. Complete additional experimental fires in a wider range of fuel types.
4. Establishing protocols for experimental grass fires.
5. Relate wildfire records to weather, vegetation and site characteristics.
6. Calibrate a preliminary fire danger rating for heather fires.
7. Maintain and further develop the FireBeaters web site.
