Abstract This study describes a multivariate statistical model (derived using partial least squares regression, PLS-R) that derives charring intensity (reaction temperature and duration) from the attenuated total reflectance (ATR) Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectra of charcoal. Data for the model was obtained from a library of charcoal samples produced under laboratory conditions at charring intensities (CI) relevant to wildfires and a series of feedstocks representing common tree species collected from Australia. The PLS-R model developed reveals the potential of FTIR to determine the...

Forests. and that actually just damages habitat. it can increase fire intensity and the rate it spread and it diverts scarce resources away from protecting communities. now donald trump wants to double down on that failed approach, and that's just the wrong way to go. >> chad, really appreciate your information. thank you for joining us. >> my pleasure. >> there's some good news on the fierns california. the camp fire in northern california is now 95% contained. thanks to the round the clock work of firefighters there and some much needed rain. but the danger is still far from over because of ...
