What the software does
WRF-Fire couples a simple fire simulation code with the Weather Research Forecasting (WRF) code. We are still working on integrating the code with the latest version of WPS, the WRF preprocessor, so what is available there at the moment can be used to do idealized experiments only.
How to get the software
On a contemporary linux machine, install git (a more sophisticated version control system than cvs that allows for multiple branches to be maintained easily and for tracking your changes without a central repository), and say
git clone git://github.com/jbeezley/wrf-fire.git
This will create directory called wrf-fire with the latest version of the code. See the subdirectory doc to get started. In order to update your local copy of the code to the most recent version, say
git commit -a; git pull origin master:master
This will merge your changes with the updates. In this simplest setup, you work in your own local (possibly modified) copy of the master branch.
If you use git to track your changes this will make it easier to share them with us and to update your copy of the code. We recommend investing some additional effort to learn a little more about git and set up your own local branch. See file README_git.txt in the doc subdirectory for further information.
If you do not want to deal with git at all, you can use the first quick link above to download the source as a tar or zip archive.
