Guide proposal for urban planning for fostering wildfire resilient timber construction in the urban-rural interface
(2021)
In wildfire-prone urban-rural interface areas, policies for fostering wildfire resilient timber construction need to consider the risks associated with the interaction between wildfires and buildings, implementing wildfire ...
Long-established rules and emergent challenges: spatial planning and wildfires in Chile
(2023)
It is generally expected that spatial planning integrates wildfire risk reduction considerations in areas affected by this hazard. However, many spatial planning systems are challenged to adequately deal with this risk. ...
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 ...
Integrating wildfire risk management and spatial planning – A historical review of two Australian planning systems
(2021)
Recent wildfires burning throughout Australia highlight the vulnerability of settlements located in wildland urban interface (WUI) areas. Spatial planning has a critical role in operationalising wildfire risk reduction ...
Dempster-Shafer theory of evidence: A new approach to spatially model wildfire risk potential in central Chile
(Elsevier B.V., 2018)
A spatial modeling was applied to Chilean wildfire occurrence, through the Dempster-Shafer's evidence theory and considering the 2006–2010 period for the Valparaiso Region (central Chile), a representative area for this ...

An Analysis of Wildfire Risk and Historical Ocurrence for a Mediterranean Biosphere Reserve, Central Chile
(2018)
Wildfires are one of the main processes that currently shape Mediterranean ecosystems. The analysis of wildfire risk combined with historical records allows for a greater understanding of trends and their relation to ...
Mortality risk attributable to wildfire-related PM2·5 pollution: a global time series study in 749 locations
(Elsevier, 2021)
BACKGROUND: Many regions of the world are now facing more frequent and unprecedentedly large wildfires. However, the association between wildfire-related PM2·5 and mortality has not been well characterised. We aimed to ...
