WF24079Remotely sensed vegetation phenology drives large fire spread in northwestern Europe

Tomás Quiñones 0009-0006-8821-1364, Cathelijne Stoof 0000-0002-0198-9215, Fiona Newman-Thacker, Adrián Jiménez, Fernando Bezares, Joaquín Ramírez and Adrián Cardil

High greenness is related to low spread rates, and fires spreading in the growing season showed a drastic reduction in spread. High risk related to common fire weather ratings was associated with low ROS.

Collaboration is often needed in complex emergencies like wildfires, but diverse interests can also cause conflict. This study examines how differences tied to organizational roles affected collaboration during 15 US wildfires. Findings highlight when these differences matter most and offer ideas for improving cooperation in complex disaster settings.

WF24163Mobile radar provides insights into hydrologic responses in burn areas

Jonathan J. Gourley 0000-0001-7363-3755, Yagmur Derin, Pierre-Emmanuel Kirstetter, John W. Fulton, Laura A. Hempel and Braden White

Experimental instruments were placed in a burnt area and captured rainfall and extreme hydrologic responses, which is a challenging endeavor with conventional observing networks. Rainfall estimation from a mobile weather radar was shown to be as accurate as rain gauges, with the ability to resolve spatial rainfall fields.

This article belongs to the collection: Establishing Directions in Postfire Debris-Flow Science.

This article provides a comprehensive review of firebrands’ thermal behaviour, their interaction with natural fuels and structures and their role in spotting. It analyses parameters such as temperature and heat flux, explores key influencing factors, identifies knowledge gaps and proposes future research directions for enhanced wildfire mitigation.
