Abstract:

The fire danger in local fuel types, even in flat country, may vary greatly. Thus the significance of individual danger classes and comparisons of danger within a forested region or between regions may be obscured. This paper discusses such variances for the fuel types of southern New Jersey and suggests methods for evaluating them.
