Forest fire pattern and vulnerability mapping using deep learning in Nepal

open access: yesFire Ecology, 2023
Background In the last two decades, Nepal has experienced an increase in both forest fire frequency and area, but very little is known about its spatiotemporal dimension.

Forest Fire Prediction Based on Long- and Short-Term Time-Series Network

open access: yesForests, 2023
Modeling and prediction of forest fire occurrence play a key role in guiding forest fire prevention. From the perspective of the whole world, forest fires are a natural disaster with a great degree of hazard, and many countries have taken mountain fire ...

A Small Target Forest Fire Detection Model Based on YOLOv5 Improvement

open access: yesForests, 2022
Forest fires are highly unpredictable and extremely destructive. Traditional methods of manual inspection, sensor-based detection, satellite remote sensing and computer vision detection all have their obvious limitations.

Moisture Redistribution in Full-Scale Wood-Frame Wall Assemblies: Measurements and Engineering Approximation

open access: yesBuildings, 2020
A counter-balanced mass measurement system was constructed to allow measurement of water loss from a full-scale wood-framed wall assembly. Water was injected onto a localized area of paper towel adjacent to the oriented strand board (OSB) wall sheathing.

Fire-Net: A Deep Learning Framework for Active Forest Fire Detection

open access: yesJ. Sensors, 2022
Forest conservation is crucial for the maintenance of a healthy and thriving ecosystem. The field of remote sensing (RS) has been integral with the wide adoption of computer vision and sensor technologies for forest land observation. One critical area of

Projected increases in western US forest fire despite growing fuel constraints

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment, 2021
Escalating burned area in western US forests punctuated by the 2020 fire season has heightened the need to explore near-term macroscale forest-fire area trajectories.

Improving the Accuracy of a Hygrothermal Model for Wood-Frame Walls: A Cold-Climate Study

open access: yesBuildings, 2020
A one-dimensional transient hygrothermal model was used to simulate eight different wood-frame wall assemblies. Simulations were compared with measured results from a two-year field study exploring the effects of exterior insulation on wall moisture ...

Forest fire threatens global carbon sinks and population centres under rising atmospheric water demand

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Levels of fire activity and severity that are unprecedented in the instrumental record have recently been observed in forested regions around the world. Using a large sample of daily fire events and hourly climate data, here we show that fire activity in
