THESys Postdoc Santos Chicas and THESys Member Jonas Nielsen recently published a paper in Natural Hazards with the title: Who are the actors and what are the factors that are used in models to map forest fire susceptibility? A systematic review.
The paper is a review of literature covering forest fire susceptibility modelling published during 2001-2021. The review provides insights on the main themes of forest fire susceptibility modelling research, the main base input factors used in models to map forest fire susceptibility, the main researchers, the areas where this type of research were implemented, technology and models used. It also highlights collaboration opportunities, and regions, such as Central America and Africa, where mapping of forest fire susceptibility is needed.
