Fire History of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park - 1940 to 1979
Fire records were analyzed for the period of 1940 to 1979 to examine the characteristics of fires in Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Significant differences were found between man-caused fires and lightning-caused fires in terms of elevation, topographic position, season, origin with respect to the park boundary, frequency, and size. Fires of both types were most frequent at lower elevations, on southeast to west facing slopes, in Tennessee and in the Cades Cove Ranger District. Man-caused fires were the most frequent, with most being incendiary in nature and started by locals. A model of fire rotation in Great Smoky Mountains National Park was presented.
