Fire Danger Assessment Using Moderate-Spatial Resolution Satellite Data
Fire, 2023 Fire is one of the most common disturbances in natural ecosystems. The analysis of various sources of information (official and unofficial) about the fires in Ukraine (2019–2020) showed a lack of timely and reliable information.

Regional scales of fire danger rating in the forest: improved technique [PDF]
Сибирский лесной журнал, 2017 Wildland fires distribute unevenly in time and over area under the influence of weather and other factors. It is unfeasible to air patrol the whole forest area daily during a fire season as well as to keep all fire suppression forces constantly alert ...

Comparison of Methods for the Assessment of Fire Danger in the Czech Republic
Acta Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 2019 The performance of fire indices based on weather variables was analyzed with a special focus on the Czech Republic. Three fire weather danger indices that are the basis of fire danger rating systems used in different parts of the world were assessed: the

Wildfire–atmosphere interaction index for extreme-fire behaviour [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2022 During the last 20 years extreme wildfires have challenged firefighting capabilities. Often, the prediction of the extreme behaviour is essential for the safety of citizens and firefighters. Currently, there are several fire danger indices routinely used

A phenology-driven fire danger index for northern grasslands
International journal of wildland fire, 2023 Background. Directly after snowmelt, northern grasslands typically have highly flammable fuel-beds consisting of 100% grass litter. With green-up, the addition of high-moisture foliage leads to progressively decreasing fire hazard. Aims.
