Data Assimilation of Satellite Fire Detection in Coupled Atmosphere-Fire Simulation by WRF-SFIRE

Jan Mandel, Adam K. Kochanski, Martin Vejmelka +1

Currently available satellite active fire detection products from the VIIRS and MODIS instruments on polar-orbiting satellites produce detection squares in arbitrary locations. The…

Toward an integrated system for fire, smoke, and air quality simulations

Adam K. Kochanski, Mary Ann Jenkins, Kara Yedinak +3

In this study, we describe how WRF-Sfire is coupled with WRF-Chem to construct WRFSC, an integrated forecast system for wildfire and smoke prediction. The integrated forecast syste…

Air pollution forecasting by coupled atmosphere-fire model WRF and SFIRE with WRF-Chem

Adam K. Kochanski, Jonathan D. Beezley, Jan Mandel +1

Atmospheric pollution regulations have emerged as a dominant obstacle to prescribed burns. Thus, forecasting the pollution caused by wildland fires has acquired high importance. WR…

WRF fire simulation coupled with a fuel moisture model and smoke transport by WRF-Chem

Adam K. Kochanski, Jonathan D. Beezley, Jan Mandel +1

We describe two recent additions to WRF coupled with a fire spread model. Fire propagation is strongly dependent on fuel moisture, which in turn depends on the history of the atmos…

Data management and analysis with WRF and SFIRE

Jonathan Beezley, Mavin Martin, Paul Rosen +2

We introduce several useful utilities in development for the creation and analysis of real wildland fire simulations using WRF and SFIRE. These utilities exist as standalone progra…

Evaluation of WRF-Sfire Performance with Field Observations from the FireFlux experiment

Adam K. Kochanski, Mary Ann Jenkins, Jan Mandel +3

This study uses in-situ measurements collected during the FireFlux field experiment to evaluate and improve the performance of coupled atmosphere-fire model WRF-Sfire. The simulati…
