Analysis on the Characteristics of Typical Forest Fire Weather Index in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei-Shanxi Region

In the overall context of national eco-conservation civilization development and con-sidering the hills in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei-Shanxi region, the local forest coverage rate is gradually on the rise, and so is the risk of forest fire. Every year, satellites can monitor and detect hundreds of fire spots on average. In recent years, serious fire took place for several times, leading to loss of life and personal injury. Then the fire-fighting work consumed huge amount of labor and material resources, exerting negative social impacts in many ways. Thus, the analysis of fire climate back-ground in this region and the forecast based on fire weather indexes constitute an important part in the forest fire risk management. Located in the tropical monsoon climate zone, four provinces and municipalities of Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei and Shanxi are similar in terms of climate character-istics. This study tries to analyze the characteristics about fire spots under satellite monitoring, fire climate and fire weather index.
