Environmental drivers and spatial dependency in wildfire ignition patterns of northwestern Patagonia
(Academic Press Ltd-elsevier Science Ltd, 2013-07-15)
Fire management requires an understanding of the spatial characteristics of fire ignition patterns and how anthropogenic and natural factors influence ignition patterns across space. In this study we take advantage of a ...
Ignition probability of fine dead surface fuels in native Patagonian forests of Argentina
(INIA, 2013-11)
Aim of study: The Canadian Forest Fire Weather Index (FWI) is being implemented all over the world. This index is being adapted to the Argentinean ecosystems since the year 2000. With the objective of calibrating the Fine ...
Self-ignition of natural gas inside pipes at a regulation station
(Elsevier, 2008-03-07)
Expert investigations were developed for a leak followed by fire in a natural gas measurement and regulation station,located in the Southern part of South America. Field inspections, chemical and microstructural tests, ...

Decreases in Fire Spread Probability with Forest Age Promotes Alternative Community States, Reduced Resilience to Climate Variability and Large Fire Regime Shifts
(Springer, 2012-01-01)
The generalization that plant communities increase in flammability as they age and invariably lead to resilient self-organized landscape mosaics is being increasingly challenged. Plant communities often exhibit rapidly ...
Drivers of fire occurrence in a mountainous Brazilian cerrado savanna: Tracking long-term fire regimes using remote sensing
(2017-07-01)
Fire is a natural disturbance in savannas, and defines vegetation physiognomy and structure, often influencing species diversity. Fire activity is determined by a wide range of factors, including long and short term climatic ...
Management impacts on fire occurrence: A comparison of fire regimes of African and South American tropical savannas in different protected areas
(2018-07-15)
Humans can alter fire dynamics in grassland systems by changing fire frequency, fire seasonality and fuel conditions. These changes have effects on vegetation structure and recovery, species composition, and ecosystem ...
