Description Usage Arguments References
This script writes a keyfile that will run FVS using the fire and fuels extension FFE. Most arguments refer to FVS keywords. Descriptions for the keyword fields have been included if possible.

|
STDIDENT |
Stand ID number |
MGMTID |
Management/treatment ID, up to 40 characters |
STDINFO |
Stand information |
NUMCYCLE |
Integer. Number of simulation cycles, defaults to 10. |
TIMEINT |
Integer vector, length 2. time interval between simulations. |
DSNIN |
Name of input access database. |
TreeSQL |
SQL code for tree list table in DSNIN. Enter as single quoted string. |
FFE |
Logical. If TRUE, must specify the following FFE keywords: FUELINIT, POTFTEMP, POTFWIND, POTFSEAS, FUELMOVE_C, FUELMOVE, POTFMOIS_S, POTFMOIS_M, SIMFIRE |
writetables |
Character string of FVS report table keywords |
writefile |
Logical. Write output to text file? |
keypath |
File path were keyfile will be written. |
DSNOut: |
Name of output access database. Must be a preexisting access database with .accdb extension. |
FUELINIT: |
Numeric vector, length up to 12. Initializes fuel table for "hard" fuels. From the FVS documentation: field 1: Initial fuel load for the 0-1 inch class (tons/acre). This loading gets divided equally between the 0-0.25 inch class and the 0.25-1 inch class. field 2: Initial fuel load for the 1-3 inch class (tons/acre). field 3: Initial fuel load for the 3-6 inch class (tons/acre). field 4: Initial fuel load for the 6-12 inch class (tons/acre). field 5: Initial fuel load for the 12-20 inch class (tons/acre). field 6: Initial fuel load for litter (tons/acre). field 7: Initial fuel load for duff (tons/acre). field 8: Initial fuel load for the 0-0.25 inch class (tons/acre). field 9: Initial fuel load for the 0.25-1 inch class (tons/acre). field 10: Initial fuel load for the 20-35 inch class (tons/acre). field 11: Initial fuel load for the 35-50 inch class (tons/acre). field 12: Initial fuel load for the ≥ 50 inch class (tons/acre). |
POTFTEMP: |
Numeric vector, length 2. Temperature for severe [1] and moderate [2] fires |
POTFWIND: |
Numeric vector, length 2. 20ft wind speed for severe [1] and moderate [2] fires |
POTFSEAS: |
Numeric vector, length 2. Season for severe [1] and moderate [2] fires |
FUELMOVE_C: |
Classes of fuels to remove, integers 1:11. 0=none, 1=<0.25 inch, 2=0.25-1 inch, 3=1-3 inch, 4=3-6 inch, 5=6-12 inch, 6=12-20 inch, 7=20-35 inch, 8=35-50 inch, 9=≥50 inch, 10=litter, 11=duff |
FUELMOVE: |
Proportion of fuel to remove. Needs to be included for every fuel class altered. Defaults to 50. Currently only supports a single value to remove for all classes listed in FUELMOVE_C. |
POTFMOIS_S: |
Numeric, lenth 6. Fuel moisture for severe fires |
POTFMOIS_M: |
Numeric, length 6. Fuel moisture for moderate fires |
SIMFIRE: |
Numeric, length 1. How often to simulate fires, 0 is every cycle |
