摘要: This chapter discusses the fire hazard and flammability of forest types Europe. It does not present an in-depth treatment subject fuel but after briefly listing discussing factors affecting its relation to it focuses on specifics European expected changes under a global warming scenario, in effort provide support for post-fire management decisions.
