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...
Maritime pine (Pinus pinaster Ait.) is an important conifer from the western Mediterranean Basin extending over 22% of the forest area in Portugal. In the last three decades nearly 4% of Maritime pine area has been burned by wildfires. Yet no wildfire occurrence probability models are available and forest and fire management planning activities are thus carried out mostly independently of each other. This paper...
In the last decades forest fires became a serious problem in Portugal due to different issues such a climatic characteristics and nature of Portuguese forest. In order to analyze forest data, we use generalized linear models for modeling the proportion of burned forest area. Our goal is to find out fire risk factors that influence that proportion of burned area and what may make a forest type susceptible or re...
Mestrado em Engenharia Florestal e dos Recursos Naturais - Instituto Superior de Agronomia ; The fires, especially forest fires in recent decades has been increasing both their area and number and are the cause of great destruction and loss of area and properties. Given this, two studies have been developed, whose contribution is to provide tools to integrate the management of fire in forest management. The fi...
