Wildfire Behaviour
A systems view of how fuel, weather and topography become rate of spread, heat release, flame dimensions, spotting and crown-fire behaviour.
What is the fire doing, why is it doing it, and which measurements describe that behaviour without pretending they are interchangeable?
How Tecnobosque frames the subject
Wildfire behaviour is not one number. Rate of spread describes movement; fireline intensity describes energy release along the flaming front; flame length is an observable consequence used as an operational indicator; spotting can create new ignitions beyond the main perimeter; and transition into crown fire can change both spread mechanics and suppression difficulty. Tecnobosque keeps those quantities separate, links each to its assumptions, and then reconnects them through the knowledge graph.
