The McArthur grassland and forest fire danger indices, widely used in Australia, predict six
fire danger classes from 'Low-Moderate'to 'Catastrophic.'These classes were linked to the …

Studies using remote sensing data for fire danger prediction have primarily relied on fire
ignitions data to develop fire danger indices (FDIs). However, these data may only represent …

Analyses of the effects of topography, weather, land management, and fuel on fire severity
are increasingly common, and generally apply fire severity indices derived from satellite …

McArthur's fire danger index (FDI) is an integrated measure of the risk of fire occurrence,
spreading speed and containment difficulty. The climatic parameter-dependent McArthur …

Spectral indices derived from satellite optical remote sensing data have typically been used
for fire severity estimation, although other remote sensing systems such as Light Detection …

Fire plays a role in determining the shape of the earth's ecosystems, impacts socio-
economic issues, and influences our climate. In arid and semi-arid Australia (70% of the …

The ability to map fire severity is a requirement for fire management agencies worldwide.
The development of repeatable methods to produce accurate and consistent fire severity …

Burn severity was measured within the Mediterranean sclerophyll forests of south-west
Western Australia (WA) using remote sensing data from the Moderate Resolution Imaging …

The effect of fire on natural resources is termed “fire severity” and is related to the energy
output of the fire. Recently the term “burn severity” has been introduced to identify the …

Wildfire is a critical ecological disturbance in terrestrial ecosystems. Australia, in particular,
has experienced increasingly large and severe wildfires over the past two decades while …
