Assessing the socio-economic and land-cover drivers of wildfire activity and its spatiotemporal distribution in south-central Chile
(2021)
Sustained human pressures on the environment have significantly increased the frequency, extent, and severity of wildfires, globally. This is particularly the case in Mediterranean regions, in which human-caused wildfires ...
Developing guidelines for increasing the resilience of informal settlements exposed to wildfire risk using a risk-based planning approach
(2021)
Internationally, there is an increasing concern with the development of improved ways of dealing with disasters(UNISDR, 2015). Wildfires bring about greater disaster risks at the urban-rural interface of wildfireprone ...
Effect of wildfire on soil physical and chemical properties in a Nothofagus glauca forest, Chile
(Sociedad de Biología de Chile, 2003)
Forest connectivity percolation thresholds for fire spread under different weather conditions
(ELSEVIER, 2021)
How fuel influences fire spread at different spatial scales has been broadly studied but it is still under research. Although prior research has generally explored fuel effects at the stand scale, there is increasing ...
Recent wildfires in Central Chile: Detecting links between burned areas and population exposure in the wildland urban interface
(Elsevier, 2020)
Wildfires are gaining importance in the Mediterranean regions owing to climatechange and landscape changes due to the increasing closeness between urban areas and forests prone to wildfires. We analysed the dry season ...
Comparison of moth communities following clear-cutting and wildfire disturbance in the southern boreal forest
(Elsevier Science, 2012-04)
Nocturnal macrolepidopteran fauna (moths) of the southern boreal forest of Ontario, Canada, were compared between forests clear-cut or burned by wildfire approximately 5. years previously to assess whether their assemblages ...
Assessment of the occurrence of forest fires in pandemic period by COVID-19 in Chile. Preliminary backgrounds
(MDPI, 2021)
The spatial and temporal behavior of the occurrence of forest fires in Chile was evaluated
in the presence of COVID-19 and mobility restrictions. The fire period from 2015–2016 to 2020–2021
