Even before the myth of Prometheus, fire played a crucial
ecological role around the world. Numerous plant communities depend
on fire to generate species diversity in both time and space.
Without fire such ecosystems would become sterile monocultures.
Recent efforts to prohibit fire in fire dependent communities have
contributed to more intense and more damaging fires. For these
reasons, foresters, ecologists, land managers, geographers, and
environmental scientists are interested in the behavior and
ecological effects of fires. This book will be the first to focus
on the chemistry and physics of fire as it relates to the ways in
which fire behaves and the impacts it has on ecosystem function.
Leading international contributors have been recruited by the
editors to prepare a didactic text/reference that will appeal to
both advanced students and practicing professionals.
