Risk management of forest fire occurrence
IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2019 Abstract This academic paper is devoted to the issue of how to reduce forest fire damage through affecting the fire causes. Forest fire causes are a subject of random probability. Adequate forest management is not possible when there is lack of precise information about when and where a forest fire may occur.

Geomatics, Natural Hazards & RiskThe grasslands of the southern Andes are critical ecosystems for the rural population, but they have been significantly affected by fires. While fire ignitions are anthropogenic, their occurrence and spread are shaped by climatic, vegetational, and ...

Climatic and Landscape Influences on Fire Regimes from 1984 to 2010 in the Western United States. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 An improved understanding of the relative influences of climatic and landscape controls on multiple fire regime components is needed to enhance our understanding of modern fire regimes and how they will respond to future environmental change.

Short Spatiotemporal Fire History Explains the Occurrence of Beetles Favoured by Fire
InsectsThe number and area of forest fires in northern Europe have been dramatically reduced during the past century, and several fire-favoured species are now threatened. To promote the recovery of these species, prescribed burning is often used as a conservation measure, and to optimise the use of these conservation burns, knowledge is needed on suitable ...

Using Multilayer Perceptron to Predict Forest Fires in Jiangxi Province, Southeast China
Discrete Dynamics in Nature and Society, 2022 The forest fire occurrence prediction model is a very useful tool for preventing and extinguishing forest fires. The determination of forest fire drivers is important for establishing a high-precision forest fire prediction model.

iForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry, 2016 This study proposes and evaluates a relatively new concept for fire occurrence zoning based on documented historical fire records. The proposed method creates continuous kernel density surfaces based on wildland fire ignition observations.

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Building machine‐readable vocabularies for materials science is slow, expert‐driven work. This study benchmarks 13 large language models on two of its first steps: finding candidate terms in engineering articles and deciding where they belong in a class hierarchy.

Investigating the Low‐Temperature Phase Stability of the Binary Ta–W System
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Atomistic simulations show that the binary Ta–W system forms ordered intermetallic phases, B2‐TaW and D03‐TaW3, as 0 K ground states. Configurational entropy, however, lowers the free energy of the disordered bcc solid solution, which becomes the stable phase above about 400 K.

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Application of a zwitterionic poly(sulfobetaine methacrylate) (PSB) coating to microelectrode arrays and Ag/AgCl reference electrodes effectively inhibits biofouling and structural degradation. This strategy successfully enables simultaneous, long‐term electrophysiological recording and dopamine sensing in freely behaving mice, facilitating ...

FireWildfire occurrence in temperate Europe is increasingly shaped by the interaction of human activities and short-term climatic anomalies rather than by natural ignition processes alone.
