Pyrogeography is the study of the past, present, and projected distribution of wildfire. Wildland fire occurs under certain conditions of climate, vegetation, topography, and sources of ignition, such that it has its own biogeography, or pattern in space and time. The earliest published evidence of the term appears to be in the mid-1990s, and the meaning was primarily related to mapping fires The current understanding of pyrogeography emerged in the 2000s as a combination of biogeography and fire ecology, facilitated by the availability of global-scale datasets of fire occurrence, vegetation cover, and climate. Pyrogeography has also been placed at the juncture of biology, the geophysical environment, and society and cultural influences on fire.

  • La pirogeografía es el estudio de la distribución pasada, presente y prevista de los incendios forestales. Los incendios forestales ocurren en determinadas condiciones de clima, vegetación, topografía y fuentes de ignición, de modo que tienen su propia biogeografía o patrón en el espacio y el tiempo. La pirogeografía surgió en las décadas de 1990 y 2000 como una combinación de biogeografía y ecología del fuego, facilitada por la disponibilidad de conjuntos de datos a escala global sobre la ocurrencia de incendios, la cobertura vegetal y el clima. La pirogeografía también se ha situado en la coyuntura de la biología, el entorno geofísico y la sociedad y las influencias culturales sobre el fuego.​ (es)

  • La pirogeografía es el estudio de la distribución pasada, presente y prevista de los incendios forestales. Los incendios forestales ocurren en determinadas condiciones de clima, vegetación, topografía y fuentes de ignición, de modo que tienen su propia biogeografía o patrón en el espacio y el tiempo. La pirogeografía surgió en las décadas de 1990 y 2000 como una combinación de biogeografía y ecología del fuego, facilitada por la disponibilidad de conjuntos de datos a escala global sobre la ocurrencia de incendios, la cobertura vegetal y el clima. La pirogeografía también se ha situado en la coyuntura de la biología, el entorno geofísico y la sociedad y las influencias culturales sobre el fuego.​ La pirogeografía utiliza un marco de conceptos de nicho ecológico para evaluar los controles ambientales del fuego. Al examinar cómo interactúan los factores ambientales para facilitar la actividad del fuego, los pirogeógrafos pueden predecir el comportamiento esperado del fuego bajo nuevas condiciones. La investigación pirogeográfica contribuye e informa la política de gestión de la tierra en varias regiones del mundo. (es)

Pyrogeography has also been placed at the juncture of biology, the geophysical environment, and society and cultural influences on fire. Pyrogeography often uses a framework of ecological niche concepts to evaluate the environmental controls on fire. By examining how environmental factors interact to facilitate fire activity, pyrogeographers can predict expected fire behavior under new conditions. Pyrogeographic research contributes to and informs land management policy in various regions across the globe. (en)
