WF24020Increasing fire danger in the Netherlands due to climate change

Hugo A. Lambrechts 0000-0003-0989-6811, Raoul D. H. Sooijs, Spyridon Paparrizos, Fulco Ludwig and Cathelijne R. Stoof

The average annual elevated fire danger days per decade according to the Fine Fuel Moisture Code (FFMC) for the future Dutch Royal Meteorological Institute (KMNI)scenarios: (a) Reference period 1981–2010, (b) GL 2036–2065, (c) GL 2071–2100, (d) WH 2036–2065 and (e) WH 2071–2100.

Our study looked at past elevated fire danger days, but also at how it will change in the future in the Netherlands using meteorological data, the Canadian Fire Weather Index and Dutch climate scenarios. We find that fire danger has increased already and will continue to do so in the future.

An assessment scale for the forest fire workers recruitment process in Turkey was created and its validity and reliability evaluated. Twenty-three criteria were identified across five factors through confirmatory factor analysis. The calculated goodness-of-fit indices for the CFA model indicated a strong model fit to the observed data.


3D visualisation of fire propagation on a 15° slope with a wind speed of 2 m/s at 10 m above the ground level.

This work presents an efficient ensemble simulation platform for landscape-scale wildfire simulations with physical representation of the combustion. We conducted high-fidelity simulations spanning 117 different wind speeds and slopes combinations. The fire spread and intermittency behaviour is studied, with an analysis of the plume- and convection-driven fire regimes.
