Caracterização Do Material Combustível Fino Da Estepe Gramíneo-Lenhosa No Estado Do Paraná, Brasil

Abstract: RESUMOA região da Estepe Gramíneo-Lenhosa no Paraná, também conhecida por Campos Gerais, cobre aproximadamente 20.000 km 2 do Estado, compondo uma zona fitogeográfica com vegetação de campos limpos adaptada a ambientes relativamente secos. Apresenta elevado perigo de incêndios, especialmente após o inverno, quando a massa de material morto e as condições meteorológicas favorecem a propagação do fogo. O presente estudo teve por objetivo caracterizar o material combustível fino dessa vegetação. A pesquisa foi de… Show more

“…The rural typology areas stood out in terms of both scenarios, due to the high risk of forest fires in these locations. According to Seger et al (2018), the combustible material of grassywoody steppe is classified as dangerous, since it is composed mostly of thin and dry material. According to the literature, the quantities of this material, as well as its vary according to the seasons, which influences the danger of forest fires in this typology, especially in more critical periods, such as winter and early spring.…”

“…The grassy-woody steppe, or region of Campos Gerais do Paraná, is considered a fire-dependent ecosystem (MYERS, 2006). Predominantly composed of grassland vegetation, interspersed with forests galleries and vegetation islands of mixed ombrophilous forest, it presents a high risk of fire (SEGER et al, 2018). Admittedly a biodiversity hotspot, the region has high biotic potential and exuberant species richness, its main remnants are found mainly in conservation units, since these vegetal formations have been suffering strong anthropic pressure with the expansion of agricultural, livestock and silvicultural activities (DALAZOANA; MORO, 2011).Vila Velha State Park is a fully protected UC, created with the purpose of preserving one of the main remnants of grassy-woody steppe (INSTITUTO AMBIENTAL DO PARANÁ (IAP), 2004).…”

“…Describing forest fuels and quantifying them is important for understanding the behavior of fire, as it provides information for fire management activities, including prescribed burning, difficulty in suppression, hazard assessment and fuel treatment BATISTA, 2007). The characteristics of forest herbaceous and shrub vegetation fuels and their importance in the ignition and spread of fires have been the object of study by several authors (SAGLAM et al, 2008;FIDELIS et al, 2010;REINER et al, 2010;RIBEIRO et al, 2011;CASTEDO-DOURADO et al, 2012;KUNST et al, 2012;FERNÁNDEZ et al, 2013;BIANCHI;DEFOSSE, 2014;WHITE et al, 2014;PERREIRA et al, 2016;WHITE et al, 2017;SEGER et al, 2018).…”
