Anthropogenic fire hazard of forests in the central siberian subtaiga-forest-steppe region

To assess the anthropogenic fire hazard of forests in the Central Siberian subtaiga-forest-steppe region, we tried to identify the causes of forest fires and the main areas of their occurrence in this territory, as well as forest fire, fire peaks and other factors and patterns.

The most common and destructive consequences are caused by the anthropogenic factor; the share of fires caused by lightning and hot, dry weather is not so large. With the increase in population and the development of new territories, the construction of roads and residential buildings, the recreational load increases.

The vast majority of natural fires that cause great environmental damage occur due to human fault. One of the first enemies of the forest is fire. Damage from forest fires is not only trees that are killed or damaged by fire; in fire-damaged plantings, pockets of harmful forest insects develop, erosion processes occur, and organic matter is washed away from the soil. Fires destroy the food supply for forest inhabitants, animals and birds. The high degree of economic, industrial and recreational development of the taiga determines the high degree of anthropogenic fire in forests.

It should be noted that in forest districts of the Krasnoyarsk Krai with a high degree of development, there is the possibility and necessity of using measures to reduce anthropogenic and natural fire hazards, fire-fighting devices that help increase the efficiency of fire extinguishing.

The need for comprehensive measures is important to reduce and eliminate unfair use of forest areas. A large portion of activities should be allocated to fire prevention propaganda and agitation of the local population.

An analysis was carried out of the causes of fires and the conditions that create possible risks of anthropogenic fire hazard, which will help plan comprehensive fire prevention activities and will reduce the frequency of fires.
