Book excerpt: Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le changement climatique a un impact indéniable sur la compréhension et l'appréhension des incendies de forêts. Cet ouvrage en évalue les conséquences sur l'écosystème forestier et sur la conservation de la biodiversité. Il est essentiel d'organiser la cohabitation entre l'homme et l'aléa incendie de forêts par l'intermédiaire d'outils d'aménagement du territoire à différentes échelles géographiques. Cela constitue la prévention du risque. Une fois l'incendie déclaré, il est alors nécessaire de déployer un ensemble de méthodes et outils technologiques et d'aide à la décision permettant de faire face à l'incendie et d'en limiter les conséquences. C'est le domaine de la prévision et de l'opération. Incendies de forêts propose des pistes organisationnelles, méthodologiques et technologiques pour la gestion territoriale de ce risque et de ses crises.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forest fires occur all over the world. Some are small, while others span across states and countries. This book explores the science behind forest fires: how they start, the damage they do, and ways to plan and prepare for the natural disaster. Through maps, photographs, and fast facts, readers will understand the workings of forest fires and their impact on the environment. They will likewise learn about ways fires are measured, where they happen, and what weather conditions are needed to create these powerful events.

Download or read book Flames in Our Forest written by Stephen F. Arno and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2013-04-10 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shaped by fire for thousands of years, the forests of the western United States are as adapted to periodic fires as they are to the region's soils and climate. Our widespread practice of ignoring the vital role of fire is costly in both ecological and economic terms, with consequences including the decline of important fire-dependent tree and undergrowth species, increasing density and stagnation of forests, epidemics of insects and diseases, and the high potential for severe wildfires. Flames in Our Forest explains those problems and presents viable solutions to them. It explores the underlying historical and ecological reasons for the problems associated with our attempts to exclude fire and examines how some of the benefits of natural fire can be restored Chapters consider: the history of American perceptions and uses of fire in the forest how forest fires burn effects of fire on the soil, water, and air methods for uncovering the history and effects of past fires prescribed fire and fuel treatments for different zones in the landscape Flames in Our Forest presents a new picture of the role of fire in maintaining forests, describes the options available for restoring the historical effects of fires, and considers the implications of not doing so. It will help readers appreciate the importance of fire in forests and gives a nontechnical overview of the scientific knowledge and tools available for sustaining western forests by mimicking and restoring the effects of natural fire regimes.

Download or read book A Proposed Method to Rank the Intensity of Boreal Forests Fires in Ontario Using Post fire High resolution Aerial Photographs written by T. Smith and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fire intensity is a crucial descriptor of fire behaviour that may also be an important determinant of many types of ecological dynamics. However, fire intensity has proven challenging to measure directly. Indirect estimates of fire intensity are often confounded with the ecological effects of the fire, precluding further study of the relationships between intensity and population or community dynamics. In this report, the authors describe a novel method for estimating the intensity of fires in the boreal forest of Ontario using high resolution imagery taken soon after fire. This method relies on an empirical relationship between the branch structure of fire-killed trees (crown fraction burned) and fire intensity rankings provided by the Canadian Forest Fire Behaviour Prediction System (FBP) and its field guide for fire managers. The results of the application of this method to 660 high resolution aerial photography sample plots, each 25 m in diameter, dispersed among 11 fires that occurred in the boreal forest of Ontario in 2005 are described.--Document.
