Descrição
Doutoramento em Engenharia Florestal e dos Recursos Naturais - Instituto Superior de Agronomia The importance of ecological and socio - economic forest fires shows the relevance of research techniques and approaches for integrating the planning processes of forest management and fire management . This PhD aimed to investigate these approaches and contributing to the effectiveness of strategies for preventing fires both at the stand level or landscape level. In this context, probabilistic models of fire occurrence and estimated mortality to the main Portuguese forest species (maritime pine and eucalyptus) in pure composition of regular and irregular structures were developed. These were later integrated into a management model that optimizes harvests scheduling for each stand in order to create more fire resistant landscapes. It’s being developed a technologic platform to test these models and their combination with an innovative approach to incorporate fire risk and protective objectives in forest management planning.
