Fire weather indices tailored to regional patterns outperform global models
Abstract Fire weather indices (FWIs) are widely used to assess wildfire risk, but are typically designed for specific regions and not adapted globally. Here, we present a systematic effort to generate country-specific FWIs that capture regional fire-weather patterns. We evaluate three widely used in...
