Biomass burning affects the land and atmosphere through the combustion of vegetation and organic soils and transfers large amounts of chemical constituents directly into the troposphere. Understanding the impact of global biomass burning on the terrestrial biosphere, atmosphere, and the impact over time are major scientific questions [Wooster et al., 2013]. At the local scale, fires are a major security hazard in numerous countries around the world, adversely affecting vegetated resources and human communities. In Europe, Mediterranean countries are the most affected by vegetation fires, with an average of almost 50,000 fires between 1980 and 2008 and an estimated total cost around 1% of Domestic Product [Santin and Doerr, 2016] including the cost of firefighting organizations, fire...
