Project summary
Sinisters in Sudoe’s area are more and more related to forests’ fires. Added to the material, environmental and social consequences, the latter are responsible for a ig part of the CO2’s emissions. To avoid those ones, an active prevention of forests fires and the management and post-fire renovation remain crucial. All of this leads to the need to take into account the risk of greenhouse gas within the design of prevention plans and the implementation of renovation measures for channels and vegetation. With this in mind, REMAS develops a quantification model to measure the risk of emission in order to include this indicator in policies and programmes for forest fires management, through mapping and the proposal of renovation measures, which obey, to standard action protocols as post-fires measures.
