Fires move fastest uphill because heat rises. Experiment: Light a match and hold it with the tip up and time how long it takes the flame to move halfway down the matchstick. Then light another match, hold it tip down and time how long it takes the flame to move halfway up the stick. Be careful not to burn yourself!uphill, for an experiment look for "Do forest fires move faster uphill or down hill
It depends on how big the fire is, the surrounding areas (uneven or steep terrain makes it harder) and how hot the weather is and how hard the wind is blowing
The amount of carbon dioxide emitted each year varies according to the amount of forest burnt. However, there is no net increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide from forest fires, as long as the forests are allowed to recover and regrow.AnswerVery little, compared to human emissions. It's hard to say exactly... It is 25.687%, approximately, it is 25.7%it is 25.687%
Humidity has an important impact on forest fires in two major ways. First, long periods of low humidity tend to dry out all forest fuels to a dangerous degree. Even a few days of low humidity can increase the risks of grass and brush fires. During fire suppression, the daily cycle of humidity can cause fires to burn with more intensity during the heat of the day and "lay down" when the humidity is higher (usually at night, or during precipitation). Humidity changes the ignition point of small and light fuels, slowing down the spread of fire.
In some cases, muck fire can be found several feet below the surface. They can burn for many months. They usually burn at the root level of a forest.
Fire suppression disrupts plant succession patterns in the forest and limits the variety of habitat available to animals.
Forest fires help people because they give off nutrients to the plants that we eat. If the forest fire lasts too long the plants will die.
Forest fires burn plants and tall trees seem to catch on fire quicker that smaller ones since they're so high up.

Hurricanes. Floods. Forest fires. Volcanic eruptions. Earthquakes if you include damaging after-shocks. Severe drought. Famine. Warfare. Epidemics of severe to fatal diseases. And of course even if the event is over within an hour, the consequences may last for a long time.

When the small fires burn out (long before the main fire gets to them) they leave an area which the main fire cannot cross because the area has already been burned so there is nothing for the main fire to burn there, and so it helps to stop the spread over the main fire from that point on.

it will burn there food
muck fires last for weeks and weeks
