Pyric properties of some dominant Mediterranean vegetation species
The chemical and physical pyric properties of several species, dominant in the Mediterranean Basin, are quantified and compared with each other. Heat content and total and mineral (silica-free) ash content are measured and analysed for 13 species, while surface area-to-volume ratio and particle dens...

Zusammenfassung: | The chemical and physical pyric properties of several species, dominant in the Mediterranean Basin, are quantified and compared with each other. Heat content and total and mineral (silica-free) ash content are measured and analysed for 13 species, while surface area-to-volume ratio and particle density are measured for 8 species. Keywords: forest fires, Mediterranean Basin, fuel hazard, flammability, heat content, ash content, particle density.
