The Drossel-Schwabl forest-fire model
2D `Forest-fire' model: Each site on the 2D square grid is
either vacant, or occupied by a `tree'. Each time step, a tree
is added at a site that is chosen at random with equal
probabilities. Also, each step, an `ignition' occurs with
probability f, where f is a small number. When an
ignition occurs, a randomly chosen site catches fire, and
the entire cluster of trees connected to the ignited site
burns down, and becomes vacant.
