| Slope |
Taken from site surveys and adjusted by the angle of fire spread in relation to the terrain |
-28° to 21° |
| Wind direction |
Modelled on a 250 m grid using Butler et al [50] from wind directions recorded for Cabramurra (63km SW of sites, closest high altitude station) and Canberra (20km E of sites, closest station) weather stations. Lee-slope directions were adjusted for dynamic channelling effects using a terrain filter developed by Sharples et al [51]. |
0°-335° |
| Wind velocity |
Modelled on a 250 m grid using [50]from wind directions recorded for Cabramurra and Canberra weather stations, adjusted for the direction of fire spread relative to the wind. |
-21 to 30km/h |
| Air temperature |
Linear interpolation between upper and lower (Cabramurra and Canberra) values based on elevation. |
12.5 to 37.6°C |
| Relative humidity |
Linear interpolation between upper and lower (Cabramurra and Canberra) values based on elevation. |
13.0 to 63.5% |
| Dead fuel moisture |
Modelled using Gould et al [39] |
3.6 to 13.7% |
