Layer: Heavy Fuels normalized (ID: 135)

Parent Layer: Air quality

Name: Heavy Fuels normalized

Display Field:

Type: Raster Layer

Geometry Type: null

Description: Emissions (on which the modeled PFIRS and Smoke Spotter smoke plumes are based, and which are generated by the BlueSky Playground) are especially sensitive to changes in the coarse fraction of dead wood in the fuel bed, if those fractions are dry enough to be available. It is therefore important to map with project-scale detail where the heaviest fuels might be, so managers have a good estimate for operational smoke management and scenario planning at their project scale, and where perhaps the standard fuelbeds (and emissions estimates based on them) might be underestimating heat and smoke production that can drive unexpected fire behavior, plume loft, and/or smoke impacts.----------------This raster has been modified from the base 30m version in the following ways:-------- - It has been aggregated from a 30m to a 300m scale by averaging across the 30m values-------- - The normalized values are rescaled based on nearly the full range of actual values, with the most extreme values truncated at the 1st and 99th percentile to reduce the influence of outliers on the expressed range of normalized values, with -1 representing high values, and 1 representing low values. This interpretation reflects concerns for the relationship between fuels and expected emissions from fire, with lower values considered more favorable.----------------- Unit Of Measure: Short tons biomass/acre
