Precipitation Rainfall average annual precipitation Ações humanas que provocam queimadas Causa antrópica Fire set by human action Anthropogenic cause It's the total area affected by fire in a burn event. Area burned A fire in low-growing and brush Brush fire It represents the set of causes that together or separately can lead to an event of fire Cause Number of consecutive days without precipitation Consecutive rainless days It's a fire set during the cool season, to avoid the fire to achieve very high temperatures or to make it easy to stop it. http://cerrado.linkeddata.es/ecology/fire#CoolSeasonFire Cool-season fire Duration The changes on the ecosystem structure and/or functioning after an event of fire. Ecosystem effect It represents the consequences of the fire in ecosystems and individual organims. Effect The changes on plant communities or on plant individuals after an event of fire. Effect on plant Ending point Ending time The process by which a plant becomes established in a new habitat. Establishment Extension It's the rapid oxidation of a material in the exothermic chemical process of combustion, releasing heat, light, and various reaction products. Fire Stands for those parameters used to describe the characteristics or behavior of a fire event. Fire characteristic The average time interval between successive fires or the number of fires within a specific period of time. Fire frequency Tells the occurrence of previous fire events and the patterns of its behavior. Fire history Energy output from fire. Fire Intensity Fire risk Aboveground and belowground organic matter consumption from fire. Burn Severity Fire Severity it's the average speed of the fire front. Speed It's how the fire event is spreading, the directions. Spread Its the maximum height a flame achieve in a fire event. Flame height It is the production of flowers, i.e., when a sexual mature plant starts to produce flowers. Flowering A fire that occurs in a wooded area. Forest fire It is the amount of fruit or seeds produced. In this usage, it reflects how the fire affects the production of fruits and seed. Fruit and Seed Production The amount of fuel available for fire to burn. Fuel It is the process by which plants, fungi and bacteria emerge from seeds and spores, and begin growth. The most common example of germination is the sprouting of a seedling from a seed of an angiosperm or gymnosperm. Source: wikipedia.org Germination It's a fire set in order to prevent large and severe events of burning. http://cerrado.linkeddata.es/ecology/fire#HarzardReductionFire Harzard-reduction fire The high-intensity fires are set in order to clear a certain area, that is, to remove all fuel material. http://cerrado.linkeddata.es/ecology/fire#HighIntensityFire High-intensity fire Represents the factors that together affect the likelihood of a certain are to burn or to start a fire event. Ignition probability factor It is a measure of the thermal energy per particle of matter or radiation; it is measured by a thermometer, which may be calibrated in any of various temperature scales, Celsius, Fahrenheit, Kelvin, etc (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temperature). Maximum temperature Quantidade relativa mínima de vapor de água na atmosfera The minimum relative amount of whater vapour in the atmosphere Minimum relative humidity Fatores naturais que provocam queimadas Natural agents that cause fire on vegetation Natural cause It is based on data observed on meteorological stations and combined with occurrence of burning outbreaks detected by INPES's satelite monitoring system. Observed risk The death of plants caused by fire. Plant Mortality It's when the fire event influence the plant individuals to resprout, that is, the fire can induce the growth of new branches as well the vegetative reproduction of some fire resistant species. Plant resprout A fire set under controlled and planned situation. Controlled fire Prescription fire A fire in scrubby trees. Scrub fire Starting point Starting time It's the death of only the above ground biomass of a plant. Top kill Certain topography features are more likely to burn than others. The study of surface shape and features of the Earth. The topography of an area can also mean the surface shape and features themselves. Topography Fires that were not planned, but were started by arson, accident or lightning and burn out-of-control. Out of control fire Uncontrolled fire It is the type of vegetation to be considered in the calculation of fire risk. Vegetation type Weather is the state of the atmosphere, to the degree that it is hot or cold, wet or dry, calm or stormy, clear or cloudy. Generally refers to day-to-day temperature and precipitation activity. Source: wikipedia.org Weather A fire burning in wildland fuel. Wildfire oboe-s:SpatialEntity It's the entity used to describe the spatial reations between entities or other elements. Spatial Entity oboe-t:TemporalEntity It's the entity used to describe the temporal relationships between entities or other elements. Temporal Entity pbuttigi 2013-04-07T14:35:18Z ENVO ENVO:01000203 An abiotic environmental factor that influences the functioning of living organisms (Begon et al., 2006). Experimental class created in EnvO. A condition defines a restricted range of a given quality or combination of qualities. If an environment class, E, has_condition C, then all qualities listed in C are restricted to the ranges defined in C in E. This is not intended as a logical conditional. environmental condition ENVO:01000203 Fire happening once in two years interval http://cerrado.linkeddata.es/ecology/fire#Biennial Biennial The worse condition of fire risk.
