This paper reports relationships between emission factor (EFp) and fire intensity for burns in the palmetto-gallberry fuel type where fireline intensities ranged up to 1,750 kw m^-1 . A model that is presented has application in determining the optimal prescription for minimizing production of particulate matter for a given fire. New experimental methods that will help in developing models for other fuel types are also described.
