Download or read book Fire Management written by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2007 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fire management is an essential part of sustainable forest management. This publication complements the Global Forest Resources Assessment 2005 (FRA 2005) as an in-depth thematic study on the incidence, impact and management of forest fires in different regions of the world. It was developed from 12 regional papers prepared within the framework of the Global Wildland Fire Network of the United Nations International Strategy for Disaster Reduction. It provides the best estimate of the global fire situation to date and gives a good indication of the scale of the impact of vegetation fires on society, on the economy and on the environment. This global assessment will be of interest not only to fire specialists, but also to policy-makers, forest managers and those involved in collecting reliable and current information on fire in different types of vegetation. It is an important contribution to FAO's efforts to enhance international cooperation in fire management.
Download or read book Earth Observation of Wildland Fires in Mediterranean Ecosystems written by Emilio Chuvieco and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-09-25 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wildland fires are becoming one of the most critical environmental factors affecting a wide range of ecosystems worldwide. In Mediterranean ecosystems (including also South-Africa, California, parts of Chile and Australia), wildland fires are recurrent phenomena every summer, following the seasonal drought. As a result of changes in traditional land use practices, and the impact of recent climate warming, fires have more negative impacts in the last years, threatening lives, socio-economic and ecological values. The book describes the ecological context of fires in the Mediterranean ecosystems, and provides methods to observe fire danger conditions and fire impacts using Earth Observation and Geographic Information System technologies.

Download or read book La cat strofe ecol gica global ha comenzado written by Stefan Engel and published by Verlag Neuer Weg. This book was released on 2024-02-08 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enormes incendios forestales y de matorrales, aguaceros gigantescos, bosques moribundos , inundaciones, catástrofes por sequías y tornados: noticias de catástrofes casi diarias en periódicos y tickers de noticias. Una serie de procesos irreversibles de destrucción y autodestrucción se están desarrollando en la naturaleza, poniendo en cuestión la supervivencia en cada vez más regiones. Estos procesos lo dejan claro: ¡la catástrofe ecológica global ha comenzado! Los responsables principales de este desarrollo son los supermonopolios internacionales, quienes en su caza por la ganancia máxima, sin piedad y a pesar de saberlo mejor, pasan por alto la necesidad urgente de protección del medio ambiente y las medidas inmediatas que se requieren agudamente. Todos aquellos que no quieran sucumbir en la catástrofe ecológica global hoy más que nunca están desafiadas a emprender una lucha transformadora de la sociedad. El libro pone inequívocamente en claro: la salvación de la humanidad sólo será posible en el verdadero socialismo. Este libro es el tomo suplementario del libro ¡Alarma de catástrofe! ¿Qué hacer contra la destrucción deliberada de la unidad entre el ser humano y la naturaleza?, publicado en 2014. El tomo suplementario da la prueba de que muchos de los pronósticos entonces realizados se están materializando más rápido de lo esperado. ¡Estamos en una carrera contra el tiempo!
