    The authors consider three completely discrete schemes for parabolic problems with nonlinear diffusive and reactive terms. For the spatial discretization they use a mesh of rectangular elements with sides parallel to the axes, and standard Raviart-Thomas finite elements. For the temporal discretization, they study a completely implicit Euler scheme, a semi-implicit Euler scheme. They give some total-error estimates of these mixed finite element methods and present some results of the explicit scheme with lowest order Raviart-Thomas finite elements for a model of natural combustion an application.
