Probabilistic Wildfire Risk Flame Length Probability 2 Alaska (Image Service)

<div style='text-align:Left;'><div><div><p><span>National data on burn probability (BP) and conditional flame-length probability (FLP) were generated for the conterminous United States (CONUS), Alaska, and Hawaii using a geospatial Fire Simulation (FSim) system developed by the USDA Forest Service Missoula Fire Sciences Laboratory. The FSim system includes modules for weather generation, wildfire occurrence, fire growth, and fire suppression. FSim is designed to simulate the occurrence and growth of wildfires under tens of thousands of hypothetical contemporary fire seasons in order to estimate the probability of a given area (i.e., pixel) burning under current landscape conditions and fire management practices. The data presented here represent modeled BP and FLPs for the United States (US) at a 270-meter grid spatial resolution. Flame-length probability is estimated for six standard Fire Intensity Levels. The six FLPs correspond to flame-length classes as follows: FLP1 = &lt; 2 feet (ft); FLP2 = 2 &lt; 4 ft.; FLP3 = 4 &lt; 6 ft.; FLP4 = 6 &lt; 8 ft.; FLP5 = 8 &lt; 12 ft.; FLP6 = 12+ ft. Because they indicate conditional probabilities (i.e., representing the likelihood of burning at a certain intensity level, given that a fire occurs), the FLP data must be used in conjunction with the BP data for risk assessment.</span></p></div></div></div>
