Research and evaluation methods on the fire prevention performance of typical vegetation in the Wildland-urban interface
The wildland-urban interface fire is a significant natural disaster faced by countries worldwide.One effective forest fire prevention method is using various fire-resistant vegetationto constitute fire-resistant forest belts.Therefore,selecting appropriate tree species for these belts is crucial in biological fire prevention work.This study measures and analyzes combustion characteristics indicators such as ignition performance,heat release performance,smoke release performance,and equal moisture content of 19 common herbaceous and woody vegetation species found in the wildland-urban interface of Northeast China.By integrating the Analytic Hierarchy Process,Ideal Solution approach,and Delphi method,a comprehensive assessment is conducted to evaluate the factors influencing vegetation fire prevention performance.This enables obtaining quantitative comparative results of diverse vegetation fire prevention performances.The findings provide a scientific foundation for implementing biological fire prevention and the appropriate selection of biological firebreaks.The results demonstrate that lilies,dandelions,and Mongolian oak exhibit robust fire prevention capabilities,thereby recommending their promotion as interface fire forest vegetation in the Northeast region.
