Comprehensive Weather Data for Every Need

Fire Weather Index is a numerical rating of the potential frontal fire intensity and indicates fire intensity by combining the rate of fire spread with the amount of fuel being consumed.

Forests provide one of the most important carbon sinks to mitigate climate change. With increasing global temperatures, forests and other wooded areas are becoming more susceptible to wildfires. These fires release carbon into the atmosphere, exacerbating the effects of climate change, damaging forest ecosystems, and creating dangerous levels of air pollution. The worst forest fires this century were witnessed is 2021, causing 9.3 million hectares of tree cover loss globally.
