Muck fires are typically caused by spontaneous combustion, where heat and organic decomposition processes within the muck generate enough heat to ignite. They can also be ignited by human activities like discarded cigarettes, campfires, or burning debris. The high organic content and moisture levels in muck make it susceptible to catching fire when conditions are right.

No, You can not always see the flames of a muck fire. It may be a Muck "Smolder" ....tht's what my Grandmother called it when Highway 92 between Auburndale and Lakeland would be black with what looked like a dark smelly fog that had rolled in, but it was a muck fire.....burning just below the ground. It seemed like they would burn for weeks. Every once and awhile flames would break through the muck and reach the thick undergrouth in the swamp and then a Hugh hot fire would follow......Muck fires can burn during a hard rain too.

The term "muck fire" is a compound noun, with the noun fire modified by the noun muck as a noun adjunct (attributive noun).
The groundwater level can have a significant impact on a muck fire. If the groundwater level is high, it can make it difficult to access the fire and can also provide a continuous source of moisture that hinders the fire from spreading. However, if the groundwater level is low, it can allow the fire to burn deeper into the muck and potentially become more challenging to extinguish.
lightning can start a muck fire if there is a natural resource in the ground where it strikes

Yes, sulfur can burn in air forming sulfur dioxide.
Muck fires can occur frequently in areas with high levels of organic material, such as peat or decomposing vegetation, combined with hot and dry conditions. The frequency can vary depending on the location and weather patterns, but they are more common in regions like Florida's Everglades or other wetland areas.
