Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Fire Management Notes, Vol. 38: Spring 1977
After each burn, aerial fuel weight consumption is calculated through observation of all individual trees within the 10-percent cruise area. Both the percentage of crown consumption, as well as the size class of fuel particles consumed, are noted. The total weight of aerial fuels consumed by the fire is tabulated by referring to the previously con structed aerial fuel weight tables for that fuel type.
Line-intersect transects are rerun in order to compute the amount of downed woody surface fuel remaining and thus the weight of surface fuel consumed during each burn. All herbaceous material on each plot is consumed by the fires.
