The FIREPROS are a multidisciplinary research team that explores diverse fundamental questions around wildfires and their socioecological impacts. We are based at the Biodiversity Research Institute (IMIB), a joint research centre of the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC), the University of Oviedo, and the Principality of Asturias. Our current research focuses on:
Advancing carbon emission estimations from wildfires applying artificial intelligence to 3D terrestrial point clouds.
Assessment, mitigation, and modelling of post-fire soil erosion and its impact on the carbon cycle.
How changes in landscape influence wildfire risk and the provision of ecosystem services.
