| A study of response times for the arrival of terrestrial forest fire fighting resources was undertaken. The advantage of the method proposed here is that it may be exactly replicated in different countries and under different environmental conditions, budgets and infrastructures for wildfire combat. This is an international-level support offering better reference material for optimizing terrestrial resources. In the combat of forest fires, fire fighting resource response times are of particular importance when evaluating fire advance speed and fire damage potential against time. Due to the importance of speed in fire containment and the economic consequences of a fire, a fire combat response time curve was constructed using fire fighting operation data... |

| Results from remote sensing analysis, participatory mapping, socio-economic interviews, and hotspot information that were analyzed in a geographic information system (GIS) show how fire has changed the landscape through its use in land preparation for oil palm and timber plantations and in the development of transmigration settlements. These timber and oil palm plantations have greatly altered the livelihood options of the communities, and have created conflict between communities and companies over land-use allocation and tenure. In many cases, conflict over tenure has been the motive for forest and land fires during the annual dry season. The study suggests that, where partnerships between communities and companies were established to develop oil palm... |

| This study objective is to evaluate the use of the BehavePlus software as a tool for fire management operations around the world. Literature search was performed for studies that use BehavePlus, analyzing the objectives of use, how the program was used,the positive and negative points, and the main issues discussed. As a result of the analysis, it was recognized that, although the software is been commonly used by a great number of fire managers in the United States, most publications use it as a research tool and not as an operational tool. Because of the difficulties inherent to custom fuel models development, and the existence of studies confirming that the results generated by BehavePlus sometimesdiffer from experimental results, its use is only... |
