内容説明

This study examines the many complex and sensitive issues relating to wildland fires. The author discusses the implications of continued drought and considers the behaviour of wildland fires, from ignition to escalation. Topics include the effects of weather and forest fuels and the effects of fire on plants and animals. In addition, the book examines firefighting methods and equipment, including new minimum impact techniques and compressed air foam; prescribed burning; and steps that can be taken to protect individuals and human structures.
