🌲 Forest Fire and Regrowth Lab: Rothermel Spread, Firebreaks and 100-Year Succession

A large 3D forest landscape where fire spreads by the Rothermel model (wind, slope, fuel moisture), crown fire starts by the Van Wagner criterion, firebreaks and prescribed burns change the outcome, and a time scrub shows regrowth from grass to mature forest and the carbon stock over 100 years.
