Natural Disturbance Model

The forest fire model, inspired by the 1990 proposal by Bak, Chen, and Tang, employs an abstract cellular automaton framework to simulate the dynamics of forest fires.

Project Overview This Python model simulates forest fires using a 2D cellular automaton with NumPy and Matplotlib. Each cell can be empty, have a tree, or be on fire. It tracks forest growth, fire spread, and recovery over time, helping to visualize and study different forest fire scenarios.
