Wifdires history of northern (Polissya) part of Rivne oblast of Ukraine
The negative impact of number socio-economic and environmental factors in recent years worsens the conditions of forest management and requires more attention to the problem of forest fires in the Ukraine. The most important factors that contribute to the fire hazard is reducing rural population through urbanization, inadequate funding of forestry, agricultural land overgrown by forest and climate change. This requires research of forest fire history in the region, which precedes the development of an effective system of protection of forests from fires.Region of study includes territory of nine forestry enterprises within the Western Polissya natural zone. The aim of the paper is a quantitative evaluation of time-spatial characteristics, long-term and seasonal dynamics of forest fires in the region.In the study, three fire maximums identified during 2003-2012, when 59% of the number of wildfires occurred and 81% of total area burned with highest average fires areas. The period of recurrence of fire maximums is 2-4 years mostly during drought period. Fire maximums can occur on whole region or in a part of it. This requires stable funding and permanent readiness of forest fire brigades, regardless fire hazard in previous year as well as close interactions with the local weather station for fire danger prediction.During seasons fire peaks usually occurred in May when 50.5% forest fires take place and 81% of total fires area burned. The lowest humidity of air and the largest number of days with drought are the main reasons of its. In addition, a significant number of forest combustible materials accumulated in the fall, increasing the number of ignition sources in the forests because of recreation and business activities increasing forest fires in the spring.The dynamics of human impact on forests can be traced through the analysis of distribution of fires and their areas by day of week. Essential predominance of number of fires is found in non-weekends days except Monday, which may be associated with an increase ...
