Abstract
The extent of pyrolysis in partially burnt spruce bark was monitored using a hollocellulose-specific fluorochrome. Fluorescence and hollocellulose content decreased as exposure temperature increased. No fluorescence was observed in material exposed to temperatures above 400 °C. The depth of the pyrolysis front into the bark layer of trees burnt in wildfires helps to determine the fire severity.
