| The sub-seasonal forest fire risk outlook successfully piloted during the fire season 2020 in Finland The sub-seasonal forest fire risk outlook prototype developed by the Finnish Meteorological Institute within the framework of SERV_FORFIRE project was piloted for the second time during the fire season 2020 with Finnish end-users. The end-users involved were the Regional State Administrative Agency (AVI) from Northern Finland and the Finnish Rescue Services from North Karelia. SERV_FORFIRE project , Tuesday 30 March 2021 |
| What comes out from forest fire? An in-depth analysis of gaseous and particulate emissions from biomass burning on “Metaponto Natural Reserve” Combustion tests have been performed on the biomass sampled in Metaponto National Reserve (Basilicata Region, South of Italy). The aim was the characterization of gaseous and particulate emissions from the combustion of different plant species.
