Optimizing the implementation of a forest fuel break network. [PDF]
PLoS One, 2023 Methods and models to design, prioritize and evaluate fuel break networks have potential application in many fire-prone ecosystems where major increases in fuel management investments are planned in response to growing incidence of wildfires. A key question facing managers is how to scale treatments into manageable project areas that meet operational ...

Spatial distribution of surface forest fuel in the Slovak Republic
Journal of Maps, 2018 Forest fires represent a real danger not only for countries situated in the tropic and subtropic zones, but the fire danger is more and more actual also in moderate climate zones, particularly due to continuous climate change consequences.

Atmosphere, 2022 Forest fires arise from anthropogenic load and lightning activity. The formation of a thunderstorm front is due to the influence of a number of factors, including the emission of aerosol particles from forest fires.

Dispersal Limitation Dominates the Spatial Distribution of Forest Fuel Loads in Chongqing, China
Ecosystem Health and Sustainability, 2023 The forest fuel load influences the spreading rate and fire intensity during a forest fire. However, the mechanism of environmental filtering and dispersal limitation that affects the spatial distribution of the forest fuel load remains unclear.

Experimental modelling of spruce needles ignition by the carbonaceous heated up to high temperatures particle [PDF]
Вопросы лесной науки, 2019 Forest fires occur as a result of natural and man-made causes. It is known that particles heated to high temperatures are a common source of high temperature.

Sieving and Covering of Wood Chips Improves Storability
Energies, 2022 Minimising dry matter losses during storage of comminuted forest fuels is desirable from both an economic and a sustainability perspective. This study examined fuel quality and amount of recovered energy during the storage of forest wood chips stored at ...

Fuel loads and fuel structure in Austrian coniferous forests
International Journal of Wildland Fire, 2022 Understanding fires in temperate European coniferous forests is hindered by a lack of reliable field observations on fuel load and structure. Fuel load influences the spread, intensity and spotting distance of a surface fire, torching likelihood and potential carbon emissions.
