Numerical wildland combustion, from the flame to the atmosphere
Numerical wildland combustion, from the flame to the atmosphere
Editor(s): C. Mari, J.-B. Filippi, B. Cuenot, and D. Veynante
The special issue will integrate papers from a dedicated conference held in Cargese (Corsica) in May 2013, under the auspices of the French National Research Agency (http://www.agence-nationale-recherche.fr/en/project-based-funding-to-advancefrench- research), the CNRS and the University of Corsica. Invited international speakers and researchers participating to the project are encouraged to submit their results as full-length papers following the publication standards of NHESS. We expect at least 15 papers to be submitted to the special issue of 10–15 pages long each.

The list of the conference invited speakers is not yet closed but already include experts from pyrogenic emissions, air quality, fire propagation model and fire–atmosphere coupling: Catherine Liousse (Laboratoire d' Aérologie, France), Ana Miranda (Air quality, Portugal), Arnaud Trouve (University of Maryland, USA) and Jan Mandel (University of Colorado, USA). Partners from the national project will also contribute to the special issue. The call for papers will be open and transmitted to a wide community.
