Developing wildfire risk probability models for Eucalyptus globulus stands in Portugal
iForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry, 2013 This paper presents a model to predict annual wildfire risk in pure and even-aged eucalypt stands in Portugal. Emphasis was in developing a management-oriented model, i.e., a model that might both: (a) help assess wildfire occurrence probability as a ...
