Anatomy of a catastrophic wildfire: The Black Saturday Kilmore East fire in Victoria, Australia
Miguel G. Cruz,Andrew L. Sullivan,Jim Gould,Neil Sims,A.J. Bannister,J.J. Hollis,J.J. Hollis,J.J. Hollis,Richard Hurley +8 more
TL;DR: The Kilmore East fire was the most significant of these fires, burning 100,000ha in less than 12h and accounting for 70% of the fatalities as mentioned in this paper, and it was the first fire to cause 173 human fatalities.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Effect of Fireline Intensity on Woody Fuel Consumption in Southern Australian Eucalypt Forest Fires
J.J. Hollis,Wendy R. Anderson,WL McCaw,Miguel G. Cruz,Neil Burrows,B. Ward,Kevin G. Tolhurst,Jim Gould +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the relationship between woody fuel consumption and fireline intensity was assessed using data collected at controlled fires and wildfires in south-western Western Australia, central Victoria and south-eastern New South Wales.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of aerial suppression on the containment time of Australian wildfires estimated by fire management personnel
Matt P. Plucinski,Matt P. Plucinski,G. J. McCarthy,G. J. McCarthy,G. J. McCarthy,J.J. Hollis,Jim Gould,Jim Gould +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared the containment times of fires with aerial suppression with the same fires without aerial suppression, and found that aircraft were perceived to reduce time to containment when firefighting conditions were more challenging owing to fuel hazard rating, weather conditions, slope, and area burning at initial attack.
Journal ArticleDOI
Behind the flaming zone: Predicting woody fuel consumption in eucalypt forest fires in southern Australia
J.J. Hollis,J.J. Hollis,J.J. Hollis,Stuart Matthews,Stuart Matthews,Stuart Matthews,Wendy R. Anderson,Miguel G. Cruz,Neil Burrows +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the Forest Fire Danger Index (FFDI) as the best predictor of the proportion of woody fuel consumed, with an R 2 of 0.58 and mean absolute error of 10%.
Journal ArticleDOI
Testing woody fuel consumption models for application in Australian southern eucalypt forest fires
J.J. Hollis,J.J. Hollis,J.J. Hollis,Stuart Matthews,Stuart Matthews,Stuart Matthews,Roger D. Ottmar,Susan J. Prichard,Alen Slijepcevic,Neil Burrows,B. Ward,Kevin G. Tolhurst,Kevin G. Tolhurst,Kevin G. Tolhurst,Wendy R. Anderson,Jim Gould,Jim Gould +16 more
TL;DR: In this paper, five models for the consumption of coarse woody debris or woody fuels with a diameter larger than 0.6 cm were assessed for application in Australian southern eucalypt forest fires.
