Product Release: 2019 Spring MoD-FIS provisional products for the Great Basin
and Southwest regions of the U.S.
Modeling Dynamic Fuels with an Index
System (MoD-FIS) seasonally modulates fuel model data and incorporates seasonal
variability of herbaceous cover. These fine fuel measurements are then used to
capture changes to fire behavior fuel models based on the current fire season
herbaceous production. Released multiple times per year on a provisional basis,
the products are available on the LF Data Distribution Site. Find out more about MoD-FIS products on the LF website.
