The intensity and frequency of bushfires have increased significantly, destroying property
and living species in recent years. Presently, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) technology …

This paper presents a review of concepts related to wildfire risk assessment, including the
determination of fire ignition and propagation (fire danger), the extent to which fire may …

Accurate and spatially explicit information on forest fuels becomes essential to designing an
integrated fire risk management strategy, as fuel characteristics are critical for fire danger …

The development of comprehensive fire management and risk assessment strategies is of
prominent concern in Southern Europe, due to the expanding scale of wildfire risk. In this …

Abstract On 23 July 2018, Attica, Greece, was impacted by a major wildfire that took place in
a wildland–urban interface area and exhibited extreme fire behavior, characterized by a very …

We characterized wildfire transmission and exposure within a matrix of large land tenures
(federal, state, and private) surrounding 56 communities within a 3.3 million ha fire prone …

Numerical simulation of wildland fire spread is useful to predict the locations that are likely to
burn and to support decision in an operational context, notably for crisis situations and long …

Extreme, downslope mountain winds often generate dangerous wildfire conditions. We used
the wildfire spread model Fire Area Simulator (FARSITE) to simulate two wildfires influenced …

Accurate estimation of potential wildfire behavior characteristics (PWBC) can improve
wildfire danger assessment. However, wildfire behavior has been estimated by most fire …

Wildfire spread and behavior can be limited by fuel treatments, even if their effects can vary
according to a number of factors including type, intensity, extension, and spatial …
