Wildland Fire
What is the best and fastest way to take s-290: Wildland Fire Behavior; online?
I work for the Forest Service in Fire and need to take s-290 Fire Behavior to get my IC5 taskbook going. I’ve heard you can take it online, but don’t know where to look.
Maybe someone at the office can direct you. I haven’t heard of taking it online. I just got finished taking my basic fire behavior and we had to be in class. Hope you find it.

Global Wildland Fires $77.48 Global emissions of particles and chemical compounds from wildland fires into the atmosphere have a strong impact on the air’s composition. In the tropics, every year numerous deforestation and savanna maintenance fires emit vast amounts of pollutants into the atmosphere. Also extratropical wildland fires can affect air quality on a regional and inter-continental scale. Models that simulate sources, transport and sinks of chemical species and particles in the atmosphere make use of fire emission inventories to describe this highly variable source. This book presents an analysis of new global fire satellite products that allow for an improved estimate of fire emissions. Emissions are calculated with the Global Wildland Fire Emission Model (GWEM) developed by the author. Results are used in a global transport model to assess the influence of fire emissions on atmospheric chemistry. Significant impacts on carbon monoxide and ozone in the atmosphere are observed. This book is directed to students and earth system researchers interested in wildland fires and their impact on atmospheric composition. Parts of this book may also serve a broader audience as introduction to the topic. |

Fire in America: A Cultural History of Wildland and Rural Fire $27.5 From prehistory to the present-day conservation movement, Pyne explores the efforts of successive American cultures to master wildfire and to use it to shape the landscape.”On rare occasions, the historical literature is enriched by the introduction of a broad new field for study, by a book that dramatically expands the boundaries of scholarly investigation. Stephen Pyne’s Fire in America is such a book. It achieves the Promethean goal of bringing fire to history”. — Science”Stephen J. Pyne compels our admiration for his gargantuan ambition and richly informed intelligence. He tells us more than anyone else to date has about the role of fire in the landscape, tells us we have been wrong in assuming a pristine state of nature before the white man’s invasion, tells us what fire has meant to the rise of civilization and this nation. No one interested in environmental history can afford to ignore this massive achievement”. — Journal of American History |
