Assessment of wildfires risks for the Bureya nature reserve on the basis of the geoinformation analysis of regional features of the territory and natural complexes

Research results for the territory of the Bureya Nature Reserve(also called «Bureinsky» have shown consider-able connection between risks of fire spreading and features of the forest vegetation formation depending on alti-tudinal zonation and specifics of a landscape (an aspect and steepness of slopes). Verification of the developedmodels of zoning of the territory on the degree of fire danger, intensity of spreading of wildfires with locations ofrecent fires provided by «ISDM-Rosleskhoz» monitoring system have shown correctness of the allocated zones.Most of the wildfire locations are matching zones of high and very high fire danger. Research results could be usedin dynamic models of zoning of the territory according to a risk of fire danger depending on natural and anthro-pogenic factors. The methods of analysis applied in the article have prospect for assessment of risks of fire dangerin remote territories in the mountainous area.
