Gullett, B. The Effect of Fuel Characteristics and Fire Dynamics on Emissions, Dispersion, and Air Quality Impacts (RC20-1304)-2023 DoD Energy and Environment Symposium-poster. Department of Defense's (DoD) Energy and Environment Innovation Symposium, Arlington, VA, November 28 - December 01, 2023.
Impact/Purpose:
This poster addresses the issue of air quality from prescribed burns and how the quality relates to the combustion properties. The work discusses how fire dynamics is affected by ignition patterns and, in turn, how fire dynamics determines emission levels. The work endeavors to improve the science behind prescribed burning so as to reduce emissions from these fuel reduction burns. This poster would be of interest to land managers that employ fire to reduce wildfire risk and to maintain ecosystem balances.
Description:
This is a poster presenting prescribed fire results from a SERDP project, RC20-1304.
