Forest Fires in the
This paper presents a summary of the forest fire reports in the insular Caribbean derived from both management reports and an analysis of publicly available Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectrodiometer (MODIS) satellite active fire products from the region. A vast difference between the amount of fires reported by land managers and fire points in the MODIS Fire Information for Resource Managemen...
متن کاملForest Fires and Remote Sensing
The use of remote sensing techniques for the study of forest fires is a subject that started already several years ago and whose possibilities have been increasing as new sensors were incorporated into earth observation international programmes and new goals were reached based on the improved techniques that have been introduced. Three main topics can be distinguished, in which remote sensing p...
متن کاملGlaciation activity of desert dust, air pollution and smoke from forest fires in convective clouds
The heavy air pollution, known as Atmospheric Brown Cloud (ABC), has been research mainly for its radiative effects and cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) activity that act to nucleate larger number of smaller cloud drops, and hence suppress coalescence and warm rain forming processes (Ramanathan et al., 2001). Precipitation in convective clouds with aerosol-induced suppressed coalescence is initi...
متن کاملThe Spread of Forest Fires
We create a simple discrete probabilistic model for spread of a forest fire. We examine the conditions for which the fire will either die out or spread indefinitely, identifying and bounding a critical value for the probability of transmission of the fire to an immediately adjacent location. PREREQUISITES: Summation of geometric series, elementary probability, intuitive limits; for the Appendix...
متن کاملLearning to Control Forest Fires
Forest fires are an important environmental problem. This paper describes a methodology for constructing an intelligent system which aims to support the human expert's decision making in fire control. The idea is based on first implementing a fire spread simulator and on searching for good decision policies by reinforcement learning (RL). RL algorithms optimize policies by letting the agents in...
