The proposed project will assess and quantify the energy transfer from wildland fires. In particular, the study will focus on the energy transfer at the wildland/urban interface relating to fuel-treated and untreated areas and the interaction of wildland/urban interface fires with building structures. The project will also initiate preliminary work on the relative performance of wildfire chemicals (e.g., suppressants and long-term retardants) on forest vegetation. The results of this proposed project will further develop proactive fire control measures, a priori to the occurrence of a fire, for community protection.

拟议的项目将评估和量化野火的能量转移。特别是，该研究将侧重于与燃料处理和未处理地区有关的荒地/城市界面的能量转移以及荒地/城市界面火灾与建筑结构的相互作用。该项目还将启动关于野火化学品相对性能的初步工作（例如，抑制剂和长期阻滞剂）对森林植被的影响。该拟议项目的结果将进一步制定火灾发生前的积极消防措施，以保护社区。
