Vlhkost paliva a půdy jako parametr pro návrh požárového managementu vřesovišť v CHKO Brdy.

Abstract

This thesis focuses on the issue of fire management, with particular emphasis on controlled burning, which is used to prevent large and uncontrolled fires. Controlled burning has benefits such as reducing overstressed vegetation, restoring ecosystems, and preventing large fires. However, there are also disadvantages, which include the risk of uncontrolled fire spread, the negative impact on local fauna and the need for precise management and monitoring of appropriate conditions. Parameters such as fuel moisture, which significantly affect the success of burning and the risk of fires, are also addressed in the paper. Emphasis is placed on the analysis of heathlands as typical ecosystems where controlled burning finds application, and on the specific conditions and challenges that this management method brings in the Brdy MPA.
