Seasonal variations in red pine (Pinus resinosa) and jack pine (Pinus banksiana) foliar physio-chemistry and their potential influence on stand-scale wildland fire behavior

•We measured seasonal foliar physical and chemical variations in two pine species.•We observed strong seasonal variations in foliar chemistry.•We assessed how foliar density variations impacted FIRETEC-predicted fire behavior.•Density variations induced marked changes in stand-scale fire behavior.•F...
