Live Fuel Moisture Content (LFMC) is a critical determinant of wildfire ignition and spread. Accurate forecasting of LFMC dynamics, particularly at a two-week timescale, is essential for early wildfire danger assessment. While satellite remote …
Background: Lightning is the most common origin of natural fires, being strongly linked to specific synoptic conditions associated with atmospheric instability, such as dry thunderstorms; dry fuels are required for ignition to take place and for …
