Wildfire (forest fire and grassland fire) is a natural process that disturbs the ecosystem succession and has important impacts on regional ecosystem, global climate cycle, and local society and economy. The grassland fire risk assessment model involves the grassland burning probability and the ...
Environment and natural resources have always been threatened by forest fires (Ozturk et al. 2010). Although it seems impossible to control natural disasters, it is possible to reduce the potential risk of forest fires by analysing the contributing factors and developing forest fire risk maps. In...
Characterization and mapping of dwelling types for forest fire prevention In a context of risk of forest fire, the development of actions concerning wildfire prevention and land management is necessary and essential particularly ... Corinne Lampin-Maillet a,Marielle Jappiot a,Marlène Long a,... ...
The students, whose school borders the Angeles National Forest in Glendale, set out to prove that infrared images analyzed with geographic information system (GIS) technology could identify homeless encampments near areas at high risk of wildfire. A Geographic Approach to Research The curriculum at An...

conclusions the study identifies key zones for european or national policies on fire prevention and post-wildfire regeneration. it offers insights into effective forest management and conservation policies, applicable to current conditions. additionally, the methods can predict future ecological vulnerability ...
Since 2010, agriculture, logging and wildfire have caused emissions of at least 4.0 Gt of irrecoverable carbon. The world’s remaining 139.1 ± 443.6 Gt of irrecoverable carbon faces risks from land-use conversion and climate change. These risks can be reduced through proactive ...

In general, the study area has mainly two types of forest disturbances, i.e., fire and harvest/deforestation. Most disturbances that occurred in this region is caused by wildfire outbreak. Compared to that of the existing forest disturbance detection algorithm, the MT-CNN is able to detect rep...
Detailed and location-aware distribution grid information is a prerequisite for various power system applications such as renewable energy integration, wildfire risk assessment, and infrastructure planning. However, a generalizable and scalable approach to obtain such information is still lacking. In this ...
