Refining Ecological Techniques for Forest Fire Prevention and Evaluating Their Diverse Benefits

In this study, an ecological framework was developed to sort out the existing forest fire prevention techniques. The subsequent analysis involved comparing the ecological values and application prospects of these techniques developed in different time periods. As ecological applications, fire regimes reflect vegetation response to wildfires, providing valuable insights for shaping the fire risk and behaviors in forests through fuel treatment and vegetation modification. Fuel treatment and the construction of green fire barriers are both rooted in existing ecosystems and possess ecological characteristics. While fuel thinning focuses on reducing the potential fire intensity and severity, green fire barriers have been more targeted for fire prevention purposes. Among these techniques, green fire barriers demonstrate unique sustainability and have the potential to generate long-term ecological and environmental benefits. Through the comprehensive utilization of several fuel management formulas, we can effectively combine the fire prevention demands with ecological maintenance and environment protection. This integrated approach promotes the development of fire-resilient ecosystems and desirable living environments in a more realistic and sustainable manner.
