How can people contain a wildfire?
By having a fireline either man made or natural(rocks,water,roads) surrounding the entire fire. The fireline must be able to withstand any big push that the fire can make so the fireline must be certain distances wide according to your fuel heights, fuel moistures and wind and weather forcasts! This is done either with aircraft bulldozers or firefighters. Enough fuel must be taken away so the fire can not "jump the line".
How do firefighters know what percentage of a fire has been contained?
What you hear on news programs is a certain percent contained! Not controlled. The percentage that is contained is how much actual fireline that is surrounding the active fire. The fire is not controlled until you have 100% containment,generaly!
Why are small forest fires used to stop the spread of big forest fires?
Small forest fires, also known as controlled burns, are used to remove excess fuel such as dead vegetation and undergrowth that can lead to larger, more intense fires. By reducing the amount of fuel available, it helps to create a buffer zone that can prevent the spread of large fires and make them easier to contain. Controlled burns are a proactive approach to managing fire risk and promoting healthier forest ecosystems.
How long have forest fire fighters been using fire resistant blankets?
I was fire fighter during the nineteen seventies, for both the California Department of Forestry, and the US Forest Service. The first fiire shelters, or aluminized fire tents were issued in 1978, and 1979. It was requirement to have one on your belt or you could not be on the fireline.
How are forest fires measured?
Forest fires are typically measured by their size, which can be calculated in terms of acres or hectares burned. They can also be measured by their intensity, which refers to how hot and destructive the fire is. Additionally, fire behavior analysts use metrics such as flame length, rate of spread, and fireline intensity to gauge the behavior of a forest fire.

I am going to run short on fireline thread in my beading project is there a way to tie on more thread?
Hi there - you don't tie it on. You weave it in. Start about an inch before the end and weave the new thread in until you are at the point whre the old thread runs out . It creates a nice reinforcement.
Does a mongoose fireline mens mountainbike have adjustable suspension?
Difficult to tell, I've looked fairly hard and haven't found a site that lists exactly what fork and rear shock that bike has. At that price range the adjustability is likely to be limited, but there's probably room for some adjustability.
How does chopping down trees in a forest fire help?
The process of cutting down trees, or clearing brush during forest firefighting activities is referred to as "cutting a fireline". Once the direction and speed of the fire is determined, fire crews may choose to cut a fireline ahead of the fire, effectively removing the fuel(wood/brush), in an attempt to stop or slow the spread of fire. There are 3 main ways in which forest fires spread. The first is from burning material on the ground, where fire travels across small plants, dead leaves, brush, etc, along the ground, until it reaches the next tree, and so on. The second is by sparks and flaming material carried by the wind into adjacent trees. The third is called 'canopy spread', where fire spreads from the canopy of one tree to another. This is often the most fast-spreading method of fire spread, as winds have the most effect near the top of the fire. Cutting a fireline creates a bare space where there isn't really much to burn, and therefore, the fire stops spreading.
Which fishing line is stronger Power Pro or Fire line Original?
Power Pro is because the line is much thicker than the FireLine Original and it catches fish faster it is also clear so the fish will think it is only just a piece of food for them and they wont see the line so I promise you will catch about three fish quickly if not full refund I promise.
Is Berkley crystal fishing line any good for breamflathead fishing?
In all reality, fireline isn't really good for anything. There are better braided lines to use if braid is your preference. If you do choose to use braid, check out Power Pro. It offers a lot of different sizes, and line tests. If I were chasing bream and flathead, I would use a fluorocarbon line since it practically disappears underwater. I hope this helps you.
