Forest Roads and Operational Wildfire Response Planning

Matthew P. Thompson et al.

Summary: Research into forest road planning, construction, and maintenance is growing as it is identified as a benefit for wildfire management. The focus is on how road networks support fire control operations and how this information is used in pre-season assessment and planning. Real-world examples show that roads are identified as primary control features, emphasizing the importance of enhanced decision support and empirical analysis in future research.

Economic footprint of California wildfires in 2018

Daoping Wang et al.

Summary: This study found that the economic damage of California wildfires in 2018 accounted for roughly 1.5% of California's annual gross domestic product, with different proportions of capital losses, health costs, and indirect losses. The research highlights the indirect impacts of wildfires on the economy and emphasizes the actions that decision makers need to take to reduce the losses caused by future wildfires.

Predicting Paradise: Modeling future wildfire disasters in the western US

Alan A. Ager et al.

Summary: The 2018 Camp fire in Paradise, California was the worst wildfire disaster in US history, resulting in 82 fatalities. Future disasters of similar or greater magnitude are inevitable due to predicted climate change, but their location and timing remain highly uncertain. Simulation models are vital for mapping risk and designing prevention strategies, yet current risk assessments focus more on mean values rather than predicting extreme events that are increasingly becoming a reality worldwide.
