- Additional comments: In wildland environments it will be difficult to measure this trait on an individual taxon; it will instead be a "community level" trait. Therefore, this trait will generally be used to document rates of fire spread in experimental situations.
- units: s
- allowable range: 0.1 - 1500 s
