This is a review of the most important work in wildland fire mathematical modelling which
has been carried out at different research centres around the world from the beginning of the …

In recent years, advances in computational power have led to an increase in attempts to
model the behaviour of wildland fires and to simulate their spread across landscape. The …

There is a debate on which factor, fuel accumulation or meteorological variability, is the
fundamental control of the occurrence of large fires in Mediterranean-type ecosystems. Its …

A Global Sensitivity Analysis (GSA) and an analysis of scale effects have been carried out
over the equations given by Rothermel (1972), with some additional modifications. Data …

In recent years, advances in computational power and spatial data analysis (GIS, remote
sensing, etc) have led to an increase in attempts to model the spread and behvaiour of …

Fuel types are one of the most important factors that should be taken into consideration for
computing spatial fire hazard and risk and simulating fire growth and intensity across a …

The biggest fire fighting accident in the history of Croatia happened on August 30, 2007. The
routine fire fighting operation ended with 12 dead and 1 badly injured fire-fighter. That was …

SUMÁRIO O planeamento do fogo controlado em pinhal bravo tem sido limitado pela

Scenario analysis and improved decision-making for wildfires often require a large number
of simulations to be run on state-of-the-art modeling systems, which can be both …

One of the challenges still open to wildland fire simulators is the capacity of working under
real-time constrains with the aim of providing fire spread predictions that could be useful in …
