Abstract
We developed a method of mapping fuel-generating disturbances based on spatial fuel models which were in turn developed using a combination of satellite imagery, topographic data, and field data. This is a potentially significant product for fuel management, pest management, forest planners, and others. With these maps, the spatial distribution, extent, and abundance of different fuel-generating disturbances can be estimated, and spatial prescriptions developed. The procedures are demonstrated by modeling the spatial distribution of various small-scale disturbances that cause fuels in the Black Hills National Forest, South Dakota and the Lincoln National Forest, New Mexico.
