Description: This dataset contains fuel loading, fuel consumption, fuel moisture, and surface-area-volume ratios for vegetation sampled around three burn blocks. Fuel samples were collected using a combination of line intersect inventory, and clip plot methods. Fuel moisture samples were collected, weighed and oven dried to determine fuel moisture content by fuelbed component immediately prior to ignition. To avoid disturbing vegetation in the burn unit, samples were collected entirely outside the prescribed fire perimeters in areas determined to be most analogous to the interior of the burn units. At least 15 destructive plots were established within each burn unit primarily in areas wherein an uninterrupted head fire was observed during the research burns. Post-burn plots were sampled to quantify consumption of fuels within each burn site. Sampled fuels required additional processing at a different location and were shipped for analysis. Fuel moisture sampling was conducted within 30 minutes of ignition for each burn unit. This collection time was based on the variability of the moisture content of the particular grass fuels along with required precision for these research goals.
