NCAR, heat and moisture figures from the fire are also fed back into the corresponding grid squares of the weather model, to simulate the way in which the fire, in turn, affects the weather.

Fire forecasters do the same, but as well as simulating the goings-on in the atmosphere, they also add a second numerical model to simulate the fire on the ground.

The scientists used a powerful computer model to simulate how a liquid released at the spill site would disperse and circulate, producing results that are not dependent on the total amount released.

The best way to see whether a fire-forecasting system works or not is to simulate a fire whose outcome is already known, and see whether the model correctly predicts what happened.

The Bohr model is pretty good if you just want to simulate crude biological and chemical processes.
