Introduction to forest fires
Forest fires are the most dangerous enemy of forests and the most terrible disasters of forestry, and they can bring the most harmful and devastating consequences to forests. Forest fires not only burn down forests and harm the animals in them, but also reduce the reproductive capacity of forests, cause soil impoverishment, destroy forest water conservation, and even lead to an imbalance of the ecological environment.
Types of forest fires
According to the central location of forest fires, the speed of spread, the location and degree of damage, forest fires can be roughly divided into three categories: surface fire, crown fire, and underground fire.
Based on the size of the affected forest area, forest fires are divided into the following four categories:
Forest fires: fires (including wildfires) in less than 1 hectare of damaged forest or other forest lands;
General forest fires: the area of the affected forest is more than 1 hectare but less than 100 hectares;
Major forest fires: the area of forest affected is more than 100 hectares but less than 1,000 hectares;
Extraordinarily large forest fires: The area of forest affected is more than 1,000 hectares.
