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 ...

Ecology and Society, 2022 Both anthropogenic and climatic factors are important determinants of landscape fire. Because the two groups of factors are intertwined and often act simultaneously, dissecting their effects on landscape fire is challenging. We used the COVID-19 lockdown

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.

Fire and Rhizosphere Effects on Bacterial Co-Occurrence Patterns
Microorganisms, 2023 Fires are common in Mediterranean soils and constitute an important driver of their evolution. Although fire effects on vegetation dynamics are widely studied, their influence on the assembly rules of soil prokaryotes in a small-scale environment has attracted limited attention. In the present study, we reanalyzed the data from Aponte et al.

Remote Sensing, 2020 A fire probability map is an important tool for landscape management, providing better identification of areas prone to fires and helping optimize the allocation of limited resources for fire prevention, control, and management. In this study, the random

Aspects of Fire Occurrences Caused by Tsunami
Fire Science and Technology, 2011 According to official reports, 286 fires broke out due to the 2011 off the Pacific coast of Tohoku Earthquake and its aftershocks. Approximately half of the fires occurred in flooded area following the great tsunami. Those fires have very unique aspects compared with other conflagrations followed by big earthquakes in the past.

Fire, 2023 Fire strongly impacts the composition and structure of ecosystems, with consequences yet to be understood. We used Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) data to map fire frequency and fire intensity and investigate their effects on miombo
