VIII International Conference on Forest Fire Research (ICFFR 2018) – CALL FOR PAPERS

The next edition of the International Conference on Forest Fire Research will take place in Coimbra, Portugal, from November 10th to 16th, 2018.

This Conference aims to provide an up-to-date on the developments in forest fire science and technology and an opportunity to meet persons and institutions, to promote international cooperation in this area.
The scope of the Conference follows its previous editions. There will be six major themes for you to present your work, each of them with several sub-topics. The themes are related to Fire at the Wildland Urban Interface, Fire Risk Management, Decision Support Systems and Tools, Fire Management, Fuel Management and Socio Economic Issues. These themes are not restricted and we are open to other subjects that are proposed, as well.

We hope that you are interested in attending the ICFFR and welcome you to submit abstracts for presentation until the 15th of February 2018.

Two Courses will be held just before the Conference, the V Short Course on Fire Safety and the VIII Short Course on Forest Fire Behaviour, as related but separate events.
