Autonomous Systems: Sensors, Vehicles, Security, and the Internet of Everything, 2018
In the last decade, research was conducted to develop measurement solutions dedicated to forest fires and based on image processing and computer vision. Significant progress was achieved in developing such tools for fire propagation in controlled laboratory environments. However, these developments are not suitable for outdoor unstructured environments.

On the Growth of Wildland Fires from a Small Ignition Source
Combustion Science and Technology, 2023Wildland and Wildland-Urban-Interface (WUI) fires are an important problem that may have major consequences in terms of safety, air quality, and damage to buildings, infrastructure, and the ecosystem. It is expected that with climate change, the wildland

Science of the Total Environment, 2019
Fire modifies soil surface, and hence soil hydrological properties change after wildland fires. High fire severity causes partial or total removal of vegetation, reduction of soil aggregate stability and increased water repellency, which are associated ...

Wildland fires have an irreplaceable role in sustaining many of our forests, shrublands and grasslands. They can be used as controlled burns or occur as free-burning wildfires, and can sometimes be dangerous and destructive to fauna, human communities and natural resources.

Fitness for Wildland Fire Fighters
The Physician and Sportsmedicine, 1981In brief: Forest Service fire-fighting crews were tested for aerobic fitness, muscular strength and endurance, and body fat. They were also tested on various work tasks such as building a fireline and carrying a 45-lb load, which were chosen to represent common fire-fighting tasks.
