Dependence of occurrence of forest fires in vysocina region on temperature and its spatial distribution

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The occurrence of forest fires is dependent on a number of phenomena. In addition to human activity, natural phenomena, including the weather and the spatial arrangement of the landscape, belong into these phenomena. In recent years there have been significant fluctuations in the weather and it is possible to observe periods with the occurrence of higher temperatures and minimum precipitation in the Czech Republic. This was reflected in the occurrence of forest fires. In the research, data series of firefighter's intervention during forest fire for the period 2005 - 2015 was analysed in the Vysocina region. The influence of temperature on the occurrence of fires in the region was monitored. Based on the findings, testing for the potential occurrence of clusters of air temperature and the identification of areas with a potentially higher probability of occurrence of fires at higher temperatures were performed. Despite the fact that the influence of the temperature was examined separately, no matter the other meteorological phenomena, the initial hypothesis on the influence of temperature on the occurrence of forest fires was confirmed. Based on these results, spatial dependence and localization of areas with a higher probability of forest fires were modelled.
