Abstract(s)
Understanding wildfire behavior at the landscape-level is critical to address wildfire
impacts in Portuguese forest management planning.
Thus, fire spread was simulated in three forested landscape to assist forest managers in
identifying high-risk areas for actively integrating stand-level fuel treatments with explicit
landscape-level management planning and develop fire prevention priorities.
Specifically, several modeling applications to detect significant fire-landscape
interactions between stand-level features and fire behavior were fitted to classify
Portuguese forests to fire risk levels and create guidelines to support hazard-reduction
silvicultural practice
