A methodology for determining operational priorities for prevention and suppression of wildland fires
Rodríguez y Silva, Francisco; Molina, Juan Ramón; González-Cabán, Armando (CSIRO, 2014)Traditional uses of the forest (timber, forage) have been giving way to other uses more in demand (recreation, ecosystem services). An observable consequence of this process of forest land use conversion is an increase in ... -
A system to evaluate fire impacts from simulated fire behavior in Mediterranean areas of Central Chile
Castillo, Miguel; Molina, Juan Ramón; Rodríguez y Silva, Francisco; García-Chevesich, P.; Garfias, Roberto (Elsevier, 2017)Wildfires constitute the greatest economic disruption to Mediterranean ecosystems, from a socio-economic and ecological perspective (Molina et al., 2014). This study proposes to classify fire intensity levels based on ... -
Economic susceptibility of fire-prone landscapes in natural protected areas of the southern Andean Range
Molina, Juan Ramón; Moreno, Roberto; Castillo, Miguel; Rodríguez y Silva, Francisco (Elsevier, 2018)Large fires are the most important disturbances at landscape-level due to their ecological and socioeconomic impacts. This study aimed to develop an approach for the assessment of the socio-economic landscape susceptibility ... -
Economic vulnerability of timber resources to forest fires
Rodríguez y Silva, Francisco; Molina, Juan Ramón; González-Cabán, Armando; Herrera Machuca, Miguel Ángel (Elsevier, 2012)The temporalespatial planning of activities for a territorial fire management program requires knowing the value of forest ecosystems. In this paper we extend to and apply the economic valuation principle to the concept ... -
Fireline production rate of handcrews in wildfires of the Spanish Mediterranean region
Ortega, Macarena; Rodríguez y Silva, Francisco; Molina, Juan Ramón (CSIRO, 2023)Background. Handcrews dig handlines to bare mineral soil for fire containment. Increasing the amount of firefighting resources is insufficient to mitigate wildfire damage or decrease the number of large fires. Aims. This ... -
Integrating economic landscape valuation into Mediterranean territorial planning
Molina, Juan Ramón; Rodríguez y Silva, Francisco; Herrera Machuca, Miguel Ángel (Elsevier, 2016)Recent and rapid landscape changes have occurred over large areas in Mediterranean Basin. Wildfires and human activities are the most important disturbances at landscape-level due to their ecological and socio-economic ... -
Landscape genetic structure of chestnut (Castanea sativa Mill.) in Spain
Martín, Ángela; Mattioni, Claudia; Molina, Juan Ramón; Álvarez, Juan B.; Cherubini, Marcello; Herrera Machuca, Miguel Ángel; Vilani, F.; Martín, Luis Miguel (Springer, 2011)The current need for forest conservation and management has driven a rapid expansion of landscape genetics approach. This discipline combines tools from molecular genetics, landscape ecology and spatial statistics and is ... -
Modeling Mediterranean forest fuels by integrating field data and mapping tools
Rodríguez y Silva, Francisco; Molina, Juan Ramón (Springer, 2011)Fire behavior modeling systems are important in predicting wildfire risk, fire growth, and fire effects. However, simulation software requires a new fuel modeling to include fuel treatments, prescribed fire and the transition ... -
Modeling Wind Adjustment Factor for a prescribed burn plan. An application to Mediterranean stands in Southern Europe
Ortega, Macarena; Muñoz Navarro, Juan Antonio; Molina, Juan Ramón (Elsevier, 2023)Wind speed, which is significantly affected by terrain and vegetation, is one of the most crucial factors in terms of fire spread. Fire simulators compute wind speed as open 10-m wind speed multiplied by the Wind Adjustment ... -
Optimal harvest cycle on Nothofagus forests including carbon storage in Southern America: an application to Chilean subsidies in temperate forests
Moreno, Norman; Moreno, Roberto; Molina, Juan Ramón (Elsevier, 2018)Different countries may have passed through their forest transitions from net native forest loss to net exotic plantation expansion. More investment in global and national forest monitoring is needed to provide better ... -
Potential Effects of Climate Change on Fire Behavior, Economic Susceptibility and Suppression Costs in Mediterranean Ecosystems: Córdoba Province, Spain
Molina, Juan Ramón; González-Cabán, Armando; Rodríguez y Silva, Francisco (MDPI, 2019)The potentially large ecological, economic, and societal impacts of climate change makes it a significant problem of the 21st century. These consequences have led to tremendous development in climate change scenarios and ... -
Primeros resultados en el desarrollo de un marcador genético basado en las proteínas de reserva en dos especies del género Nothofagus
Martín, María Ángela; Muñoz, Sonia; Muñoz, Fernando; Uribe, Matilde; Molina, Juan Ramón; Herrera Machuca, Miguel Ángel; Martín, Luis Miguel; Álvarez, Juan B. (Universidad Austral de Chile, 2010)The Nothofagus genus (Nothofagaceae) in Chile includes 12 species and some hybrids among them. Some of these species are seriously threatened, presenting a low distribution and high genetic erosion. In this study a molecular ... -
Right Ventricular Function in long-term survivors of childhood acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia: from the CTOXALL study

The aim of this study was to assess RV function in these patients using echocardiographic ... -
Scorch height and volume modeling in prescribed fires: effects of canopy gaps in Pinus pinaster stands in Southern Europe
Molina, Juan Ramón; Ortega, Macarena; Rodríguez y Silva, Francisco (Elsevier, 2022)The use of prescribed fire has been on the rise in recent years owing to its effectiveness in surface fuel reduction, its implementation cost, and the possibility of firefighter training. However, greater knowledge regarding ... -
The ignition index based on flammability of vegetation improves planning in the wildland-urban interface: A case study in Southern Spain
Molina, Juan Ramón; Martín, Teodoro; Rodríguez y Silva, Francisco; Herrera Machuca, Miguel Ángel (Elsevier, 2017)Forest fires in the wildland urban interface (WUI) are a widespread and growing problem due to changes in land use and climate. The impacts of WUI fire depend on the exposure of homes to dense vegetation (both natural and ... -
