1. Wildfire growth modelling in Sweden - a suitability assessment of available data
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapSammanfattning : Wildfires are worldwide problems that stress societies by damaging their economies and they cause serious, sometimes fatal, health implications among the populations. In recent years, the rate of wildfire occurrence has increased as the global average temperature has risen. Because of global climate change, this rate is expected to continue rising. LÄS MER
2. A Web Application for Wildfire Spread Prediction and Visualisation in Sweden Using Geospatial Data and Technology
Master-uppsats, KTH/GeoinformatikSammanfattning : Skogsbränder är kraftfulla naturfenomen kapabla att åstakomma omfattande skada över stora ytor och medföra omfattande kostnader för sammhället både humanitärt, ekonomiskt och miljömässigt. Det finns därför ett starkt incitament att övervaka och förutspå skogsbränders utveckling och spridning. LÄS MER
3. The Application of a Wildfire Evacuation Tool to Swedish locations
Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för BrandteknikSammanfattning : WUI-NITY is a computer modelling program for wildfire evacuation simulations. This thesis examines the applicability of WUI-NITY to locations in Sweden. The program was tested at example locations representing the Swedish landscape. LÄS MER
4. The Development of A Simple Engineering Calculation Method for Wildfire Scenarios
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för BrandteknikSammanfattning : Emergency planning is required to respond to the increasing wildfire threat. A part of this is to assess a community’s capacity to move to a safe place during wildfires. This can be achieved by calculating the time it takes for a community to evacuate from an at-risk area to a relatively safe place. LÄS MER
5. Validation of WUI-NITY compared to real-world data
Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för BrandteknikSammanfattning : This thesis compares the wildfire evacuation simulation programme, WUI-NITY, against real-world data by analysing and comparing three wildfire events of the past. The wildfire events were all limited to be within the state of California and was further analysed based on the available quality of data derived of the chosen database. LÄS MER
