This session will be hosted by the 26th Conference on Numerical Weather Prediction (26NWP).  We welcome abstracts on topics including (but not limited to) direct numerical simulation of wildfires, coupled fire-atmosphere models, and wildfire impacts (e.g., the effect of burn scars on hydrology, as well as their deleterious effects on model initialization and forecasting if they are not assimilated into the model).  Abstracts that focus primarily on wildfire smoke/pollution should be submitted to the 22nd Conference on Atmospheric Chemistry.
