Temporal regimes in fire data recorded from 1997 to 2003 in an area of central Italy have been detected by using the Allan Factor statistics. Our findings reveal the presence of meteo-climatic-related periodicities; furthermore time-scaling behaviour characterizes the point process of the fire...

Could the dynamics of vegetation covers be significantly influenced by fires? Is it possible to identify and quantify such effect? In order to detect fire-induced variability in vegetational dynamics, we performed a fluctuation analysis of time series of satellite SPOT-VEGETATION normalized...

Spatial clustering in fire data recorded from 1997 to 2003 in an area of central Italy has been deeply investigated using indices of different type: (i) a topological index , the Voronoı¨ polygon area; (ii) a statistical index, the Morishita index; (iii) a dimensional index, the fractal...
