The envisioned wildfire risk modeling framework

Detailed Description

Flowchart of the steps taken to dynamically model wildfire risk, showing inputs (topography, weather, vegetation, and fuels) that are passed to processes (ignition probability and fire spread and behavior). Changes in available fuels are considered each year in the simulations, modifying the inputs. The results are combined with the presence of values, response functions for each value, and then combined across values with weights, resulting in an expected net value change.
