Simulation Showcase

Sample outputs from a WRF‑SFIRE simulation, visualized using wrfxweb. These visualizations help fire managers and researchers gain valuable insights into potential fire behavior, aiding in both strategic planning and emergency response.

Live Dynamical Website

You can access our dynamical website here to see some sample wildfire simulations.

  • Some simulations have multiple domains shown in the top right area.
  • You'll sometimes have to switch to the innermost domain to see the actual fire area.

The dynamical website was set up with the help of the MCECS Computer Action Team (CAT), and can only be accessed while on the MCECS network, or VPN. This was done for security purposes.
