First Order Fire Effects Model (FOFEM) -- USDA Forest Service

FOFEM is a computer program that was developed to meet the needs of resource managers, planners, and analysts in predicting and planning for fire effects. [FRAMES page]
The Fire and Fuels Extension to the Forest Vegetation Simulator (FFE-FVS) -- USDA Forest Service

FFE-FVS links the existing FVS, models that represent fire and fire-effects, with newly developed fuels dynamics and crowning submodels. [FRAMES page]
Fire Effects Planning Framework (FEPF) -- USDA Forest Service

FEPF is an framework for fire planning determining where and under what conditions fire may create benefits or pose threats to identified ecological conditions or management targets.
National Fire Plan Project Design and Consultation Process (FCP) -- NOAA, USFWS, USFS, BLM
