The vertical connection of fuels that can allow fire to move from surface vegetation into shrubs, lower branches and canopy fuels.
In plain language
The vertical connection of fuels that can allow fire to move from surface vegetation into shrubs, lower branches and canopy fuels.

Vertical Fuel Continuity is useful because it separates one specific part of wildfire behaviour, exposure, operations or evidence from nearby concepts that can otherwise be mixed together.
