Abstract
Claudia Vitolo, Scientist at European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF), focussed her presentation on forest fire mapping. Although forest fires are an integral part of the natural Earth system dynamics, they are becoming more devastating and less predictable as anthropogenic climate change exacerbates their impacts. Longer and more extreme fire seasons,fed by rain-free days globally, are inducing significant variations in wildfire danger. In this talk, Claudia presented the complete wildfire-related data offering, tools for efficient data processing and visualisation as well as results from recent research projects. The European Centre for Medium-range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) and Copernicus have created a wealth of datasets related to the forecasting of wildfire danger as well as the detection of wildfire events and related emissions in the atmosphere. These products contribute to the operational services provided by the Copernicus Emergency Management Service (CEMS) and the Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS) and consists of real time forecasts as well as historical datasets based on ECMWF reanalysis database ERA5. Data is open and available through the Copernicus Climate Data Store (CDS), the European Commission’s Global Wildfire Information System (GWIS) and European Forest Fire Information System (EFFIS).
