Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the relationship between the environment and wildfires in Northern California, a region containing a wide variety of forest types, from timber-producing conifer stands to non-commercial grasslands and chaparral. The author analyzes ten years of fire data to discover the influence of forest type on the occurrence and behaviour of fires, and the effectiveness of forest protection. The author finds that the intensity of the fire season, as well as the ease of starting and spread of fires is related to the kind of plant life present. Dense stands of timber, for example, prevent the growth of understory vegetation that can fuel fires, while the open nature of grasslands allows for rapid fire spread. The author's insights improve understanding of how wildfires behave and how to control them, proving invaluable to forest managers seeking to protect forests from the devastating effects of wildfires. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
