# 🌿 Obsidian Bushfire Modelling Notes
Welcome to the **Obsidian Bushfire Modelling Notes** vault!
This repository provides a structured and interactive resource for studying **bushfire mathematics** and **fire behaviour modelling**, designed for seamless use in [Obsidian](https://obsidian.md).
---
## ✨ Features
* **Bushfire Mathematics & Modelling**
Detailed notes on classical and modern bushfire models, fire behaviour equations, and key scientific concepts.
* **Interactive Tools**
JavaScript-based sliders embedded via [DataviewJS](https://blacksmithgu.github.io/obsidian-dataview/) let you adjust parameters and instantly explore model outcomes.
* **Structured Vault**
Notes are organised into **definitions**, **equations**, **models**, and **interactive calculators** for easy study and navigation.
* **Tags & Aliases**
Consistent tagging and aliasing allow fast searching and cross-linking across related notes.
* **Expandable & Modular**
Designed for long-term growth—easily add new models, definitions, or interactive experiments.
### Slider Previews
These screenshots showcase the interactive sliders in action, allowing users to manipulate variables such as wind speed, slope, and fuel moisture to see real-time effects on fire spread rates.

## 🛠️ Getting Started
1. **Clone or download** this repository.
2. Copy the folders (`bushfire-notes`, `definitions`, `equations`, `javascript-interactive-sliders`) into your Obsidian vault.
3. Open Obsidian and let it index the new notes.
4. Navigate using the **Bushfire Maths MOC.md** (Map of Content).
5. Explore **interactive sliders** on supported pages to experiment with fire behaviour parameters.
---
### 🔧 Requirements
* [Obsidian](https://obsidian.md)
* [Dataview Plugin](https://github.com/blacksmithgu/obsidian-dataview) (for dynamic tables, queries, and JavaScript embedding)
> **Note**: Interactive sliders require **DataviewJS enabled** in your Obsidian setup.
---
## 🧠Organisation & Navigation
* **Map of Content (MOC)**
Central hub (`Bushfire Maths MOC.md`) to access notes, definitions, and tools.
* **Tagging System**
Notes are consistently tagged for quick filtering (e.g., `#mathematics/equations/mathematical-modelling/bushfire-models`).
* **Aliases**
Each concept includes aliases for fast search and cross-referencing.
---
## đź“Ś Example Use Cases
* Learn how **Rothermel’s spread model** or **McArthur’s Forest Fire Danger Index** work.
* Adjust sliders for **wind speed**, **slope**, or **fuel moisture** and see the effects on spread rate in real time.
* Build your own bushfire model library by adding equations, notes, or simulation tools.
* Use as a **teaching resource** for bushfire science, mathematical modelling, or environmental studies.
