Mulching is fuel mastication which coverts vertical fuel structure to horizontal fuel bed to reduce fire intensity and fire behaviour.<\/p>\n<p>Studies have shown fuel treatments alone cannot stop fire. Fuel treatments are most effective when combined with wildfire suppression tactics. Using airtankers to layout wildfire suppression chemical on fuel treatments is one of these wildfire suppression tactics.<\/p>\n<p>Wildfire agencies would like to understand retardant effectiveness in mulch fuels to form better suppression plans.[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"clearboth\"><\/div><style>#thegem-divider-6a134efc1c2a8 {margin-top: 48px !important;}<\/style><div id=\"thegem-divider-6a134efc1c2a8\" class=\"gem-divider  \" style=\"\" ><\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">.thegem-button-6a134efc1c3e56980 .gem-button svg {fill: #ffffff;}.thegem-button-6a134efc1c3e56980 .gem-button:hover svg {fill: #ffffff;}<\/style><div class=\"gem-button-container gem-button-position-inline thegem-button-6a134efc1c3e56980    \"  ><a class=\"gem-button gem-button-size-small gem-button-style-flat gem-button-text-weight-normal\" data-ll-effect=\"drop-right-without-wrap\" style=\"border-radius: 3px;background-color: #faa533;color: #ffffff;\" onmouseleave=\"this.style.backgroundColor='#faa533';this.style.color='#ffffff';\" onmouseenter=\"this.style.backgroundColor='#0b4a6b';this.style.color='#ffffff';\" href=\"https:\/\/library.fpinnovations.ca\/en\/viewer?file=%2fmedia%2fFOP%2f10061.pdf#search=Retardant%20effectiveness%20on%20mulch%20fuel&#038;phrase=false&#038;pagemode=bookmarks\" target=\"_self\">Presentation Document<\/a><\/div> [\/vc_column][vc_column width=\u00a0\u00bb1\/4&Prime;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Project [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] Retardant effectiveness on mulch fuel [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=\u00a0\u00bb1\/4&Prime;][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text] Year [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]2017[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] status [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Current[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] Researcher [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Brandon MacKinnon (Lead) \/ Rex&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":26658,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[113],"tags":[120,126,114,115,129,128],"class_list":{"0":"post-27047","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-community-resilience-and-fuels-fr","8":"tag-aerial-fr","9":"tag-corridor-fr","10":"tag-firesmart-fr","11":"tag-fuel-management-fr","12":"tag-mulch-fr","13":"tag-pelican-mountain-fr"},"menu_order":0,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wildfire.fpinnovations.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27047","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wildfire.fpinnovations.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wildfire.fpinnovations.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wildfire.fpinnovations.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wildfire.fpinnovations.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=27047"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/wildfire.fpinnovations.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27047\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":27048,"href":"https:\/\/wildfire.fpinnovations.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27047\/revisions\/27048"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wildfire.fpinnovations.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/26658"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wildfire.fpinnovations.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=27047"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wildfire.fpinnovations.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=27047"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wildfire.fpinnovations.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=27047"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
