In many parts of the world forest disturbance regimes have intensified recently, and future
climatic changes are expected to amplify this development further in the coming decades …

The prevailing paradigm in the western US is that the increase in stand-replacing wildfires in
historically frequent-fire dry forests is due to unnatural fuel loads that have resulted from …

Forest fire is one of the foremost environmental disasters that threatens the Australian
community. Recognition of the occurrence patterns of fires and the identification of fire risk is …

This simulation research was conducted in order to develop a large-fire risk assessment
system for the contiguous land area of the United States. The modeling system was applied …

Increasingly, objectives for forests with moderate-or mixed-severity fire regimes are to
restore successionally diverse landscapes that are resistant and resilient to current and …

Wildfire susceptibility maps display the spatial probability of an area to burn in the future,
based solely on the intrinsic local proprieties of a site. Current studies in this field often rely …

Wildland fire management is subject to manifold sources of uncertainty. Beyond the
unpredictability of wildfire behavior, uncertainty stems from inaccurate/missing data, limited …

Risk analysis evolved out of the need to make decisions concerning highly stochastic
events, and is well suited to analyse the timing, location and potential effects of wildfires …

Wildfires can result in significant, long-lasting impacts to ecological, social, and economic
systems. It is necessary, therefore, to identify and understand the risks posed by wildland …

We simulated fuel reduction treatments on a 16,000 ha study area in Oregon, US, to
examine tradeoffs between placing fuel treatments near residential structures within an …
