future wildland fire management from a technological perspective and inspiration of future research and implementation. Further research should focus on refining and validating Digital Twin models and the integration into existing fire management operations, and then demonstrating them in real wildland fires...
Fire-related desertification has a number of environmental, social, and economic consequences. The two key environmental consequences are soil erosion and non-native plant invasions. Erosion after wildland fires can be in the range of <1 Mg ha-1 to 370 Mg ha-1, depending on fire severity, ...
projected fire future changes from other points of view (occurrence of very large fires, wildfire potential, etc.), finding also a general increase of fire severity by the end of the century in some of these Te-dhs fire regions. The interannual recurrence of fire-prone conditions will ...
These impacts are likely to worsen as fires in the WUI are anticipated to increase due to ongoing pressures for urban housing expansion, accumulation of biomass from historical fire exclusion practices, and greater fire danger days and extreme weather conditions due to climate change (Thompson et ...

herbaceous fuels can increase rapidly after periods of high precipitation. Given that 15% of the global population lives in the grassland-dominated WUI, more intensive grassfires could become a big challenge for both wildfire preparedness and response44....
The firelines were prescribed with the intensities that were computed according to the severity of the fires given by the FDIs. The firefront was set up to match the radiative heat flux on the structure following the empirical model in AS3959. A comprehensive analysis was carried out focusing ...
Wildland fires have become a major research subject among the national and international research community. Different simulation models have been developed to prevent this phenomenon. Nevertheless, fire propagation models are, until now, challenging due to the complexity of physics and chemistry, high ...
This memory effect in fuel data, as one of the model inputs, can persist for several years and continuously influence future fire behavior in the years following historical fires. Regular updates to fuel data would aid the model in capturing and adapting to this memory effect in its fuel ...
Overall, modeled fires burned burnable pixels at least once and more than 100 times on average. FlamMap outputs burn probability (BP) and flame length probability (FLP) grids, as well as a fire size (FS) text file and the fire perimeters (polygons). The burn probability (BP) is the ...
