*Version {{WRF-Fire-commit|fa26d08d8154124ac51514b11bc671eb312e20f8|Nov 20, 2010}} as originally submitted to WRF committee for the 3.3 release
 
*Bug fix {{WRF-Fire-commit|3f78267b38e0f0a36da49a58b8f00d00789ee67a|Jan 18, 2011}}. This is the final version submitted to the WRF committee.
 
*{{WRF-Fire-commit|9a4e38390e19b612be459c4aacfdfb427ca472ba|Files after changes at NCAR}} in the submitted fire module files. These changes consist of
 
** Janice's changes in fire module files. See also [http://mailman.ucar.edu/pipermail/wrf-fire/2011-April/000053.html her post describing the additional changes].
 
*** Various small edits to comments all over.
 
*** Deleted  essentially all attributions [https://github.com/jbeezley/wrf-fire/commit/9a4e38390e19b612be459c4aacfdfb427ca472ba#L0L3] [https://github.com/jbeezley/wrf-fire/commit/9a4e38390e19b612be459c4aacfdfb427ca472ba#L1L2] [https://github.com/jbeezley/wrf-fire/commit/9a4e38390e19b612be459c4aacfdfb427ca472ba#L2L1] [https://github.com/jbeezley/wrf-fire/commit/9a4e38390e19b612be459c4aacfdfb427ca472ba#L5L486] [https://github.com/jbeezley/wrf-fire/commit/9a4e38390e19b612be459c4aacfdfb427ca472ba#L6L2]
 
*** Small (max about 1%) changes to default values of fuel data variables [https://github.com/jbeezley/wrf-fire/commit/9a4e38390e19b612be459c4aacfdfb427ca472ba#L5L123]
 
*** Deleted the use of fuel variable windrf [https://github.com/jbeezley/wrf-fire/commit/9a4e38390e19b612be459c4aacfdfb427ca472ba#L5L254] [https://github.com/jbeezley/wrf-fire/commit/9a4e38390e19b612be459c4aacfdfb427ca472ba#L5L506]. This has the same effect as setting all windrf=1 in the data with the submitted code. The default value of fire_wind_height was not changed in the registry and remains at 6.096m; this results in 2-3 times increase wind-driven spread rates when running the code at defaults. [http://mailman.ucar.edu/pipermail/wrf-fire/2011-April/000053.html The intention] was to set fire_wind_height to a smaller value in the namelist, but then the value is the same for all fuels. [[Talk:WRF-Fire_development_notes#Wind_interpolation_to_different_heights_for_different_fuels|Wind interpolation to different heights for different fuels]] came later and it is not in the release
 
*** Renamed ros_back to ros_base [https://github.com/jbeezley/wrf-fire/commit/9a4e38390e19b612be459c4aacfdfb427ca472ba#L5L701], added local variable ros_back [https://github.com/jbeezley/wrf-fire/commit/9a4e38390e19b612be459c4aacfdfb427ca472ba#L5R683] used only in chapparal. Two lines change results: [https://github.com/jbeezley/wrf-fire/commit/9a4e38390e19b612be459c4aacfdfb427ca472ba#L5L761] in the MacArthur formula and [https://github.com/jbeezley/wrf-fire/commit/9a4e38390e19b612be459c4aacfdfb427ca472ba#L5L776] in chaparral both have the effect of increasing the spread rate by adding the zero-wind rate.
 
*** Deleted the identification of the git commit the files come from [https://github.com/jbeezley/wrf-fire/commit/9a4e38390e19b612be459c4aacfdfb427ca472ba#L2L136] [https://github.com/jbeezley/wrf-fire/commit/9a4e38390e19b612be459c4aacfdfb427ca472ba#L6L1322]
 
*** Replacing all examples by two new ones {{WRF-Fire-commit|95b78446eba31274c092f196237cef695e51860e|Mar 18, 2011}}
 
**Routine software engineering changes: Added ONLY to USE statements [https://github.com/jbeezley/wrf-fire/commit/9a4e38390e19b612be459c4aacfdfb427ca472ba#L2L1] [https://github.com/jbeezley/wrf-fire/commit/9a4e38390e19b612be459c4aacfdfb427ca472ba#L2L798] [https://github.com/jbeezley/wrf-fire/commit/9a4e38390e19b612be459c4aacfdfb427ca472ba#L3L22] [https://github.com/jbeezley/wrf-fire/commit/9a4e38390e19b612be459c4aacfdfb427ca472ba#L6L1411] [https://github.com/jbeezley/wrf-fire/commit/9a4e38390e19b612be459c4aacfdfb427ca472ba#L6L1337] [https://github.com/jbeezley/wrf-fire/commit/9a4e38390e19b612be459c4aacfdfb427ca472ba#L6L1411]
