From: Intercomparison of Fire Size, Fuel Loading, Fuel Consumption, and Smoke Emissions Estimates on the 2006 Tripod Fire, Washington, USA

Figure 8

Fuel consumption estimated from MTBS linked to Composite Burn Index (CBI) and compared with Consume 4.0 and FOFEM 5.7 fuel consumption outputs. All results shown are based on the MTBS fire perimeter and FCCS2 30 m fuelbeds for the Tripod Fire Complex. This figure shows (A) the fuel loading and fuel consumption estimates from MTBS, FOFEM, and Consume; (B) the FCCS2 30 m vegetation map; (C) burn severity; and (D) the corresponding fuel consumption calculated from burn severity and CBI. Also shown in panels (E) and (F) are the differences (%) in fuel consumptions between MTBS and Consume (E) and MTBS and FOFEM (F).
