Abstract
Based on the research of the Forest Burning Links published in the Journal of Northeast Forestry University in 1987, this paper continues to study the theory of forest burning. Fire behavior has been divided into two important series in this paper. One is fire occurrence and spread, and the other is burning intensity. The first series has been divided into three grades as A: to burn difficulty and spread slowly; B: to burn possibly and spread little fast; and C: to burn easily and spread fast. The second series has been divided into four grades as I: light burning; II: medium burning; III: intense burning; and IV: severe burning. The first series can be put as ordinate, and the second series can be put as abscissa. Then the network of 12 forest burning links can be formed. In the network, the relationship, the law of distribution and the variation of different forest burning links can be shown clearly. The studies of the distribution of fuel types, topography, site and fire kinds in the network can provide the basic theory for fire management.
