Continuous monitoring of open space is of the utmost importance for the protection of forests against fire. Collected data in real time provide fast intervention of relevant services to extinguish the fire. Timely information about the appearance of fire reduce the number of areas affected by this fire and thereby minimizes the costs of fire extinguishing and the damage caused in the woods. The current way of detecting fire in an open area in Serbia is not in real time, and due to this, it is necessary to implement modern technology of collecting data related to early detection of fires. This paper presents an integral project of forest-fire protection on the territory of Serbia in order to provide the reference for the application of terrestrial automated system for early detection and prediction of forest fires. An automated system could be comprised of infrared and high-resolution TV camera surveillance, covering a large part of the forest area and forest land. Key words: Forest fire, prediction, early detection.

In work questions of increase in efficiency of suppression of wildfires with the use of various ad-ditives to water are considered. At specially created stand fire tests on suppression of model seats of forest fire with imitation of dumping of water from the plane are carried out. Solutions of bentonite, bischofite, etc. are investigated. On the basis of probes it is established that the additives to water, in-creasing viscosity, promote improvement of aviation suppression of the fires.

  Con la presente investigación se busca principalmente establecer un perfil de ansiedad, estrés y estados de ánimo del Personal Especialista en Extinción de Incendios Forestales (PEEIF) o bomberos forestales tanto a nivel general como en situaciones de emergencia. La muestra se compuso de 24 sujetos a los que se administró una batería de cuestionarios en tres ocasiones (sin emergencia, primer a emergencia y última emergencia), compuesta por un cuestionario sociodemográfico adhoc, el Perfil de Estados de Ánimo (POMS); y el Inventario de ansiedad estado-rasgo (STAI- E/R), realizando un análisis descriptivo y comparativo a través de la prueba t-student y comparaciones múltiples con Anova de medidas repetidas. Se observó que los miembros PEEIF, a nivel general, tenían valores bajos de ansiedad estado, ansiedad rasgo, tensión, depresión, cólera, fatiga y confusión, mientras que el vigor fue elevado. En situaciones de emergencia, los valores se vieron modificados en su totalidad, debido a la fuente de estrés que supone. Se demuestra que el trabajo de extinción de incendios forestales se caracteriza por tener efectos negativos a nivel emocional sobre sus profesionales, mediados por la experiencia, cargo y condiciones familiares. Abstract: The present research mainly seeks to establish a profile of anxiety, stress and moods of the Forest Fire Extinction Specialist Personnel (PEEIF) or wildland firefighters both at a general level and in emergency situations. The sample was made up of 24 subjects who were administered a battery of questionnaires on three occasions (no emergency, first emergency and last emergency), composed of an ad-hoc sociodemographic questionnaire, the Profile of Mood States (POMS); and the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI-E / R), carrying out a descriptive and comparative analysis through the bat-student test and multiple comparisons with repeated measures Anova. It was observed that the PEEIF members, at a general level, had low values ​​of state anxiety, trait anxiety, tension, depression, anger, fatigue and confusion, while vigor was high. In emergency situations, the values ​​were modified in their entirety, due to the source of stress involved. It is shown that forest fire extinguishing work is characterized by having negative emotional effects on its professionals, mediated by experience, position and family conditions.

Working Processes

The main requirements for carrying out preventive and forest fire works are revealed. It is established that the main drawback of the used soil-sweeping machines is the small amount of soil supplied, its distribution over a large area by a small layer. This is ineffective when extinguishing a fire. Also a disadvantage is the low performance due to the low speed of the machine (up to 2 km / h). The main ways to improve the efficiency of working processes of forest fire engines and tools are considered. The working processes of new designs of soil-sweeping machines with preliminary preparation of the soil shaft before the thrower cutters are considered. Milling of the fed soil is excluded from the working process of the blade of the thrower cutter. This function is performed by spherical disks mounted on the front. In addition, the disks form a soil shaft for subsequent throwing by the rotor. But this innovation did not improve performance. Fire extinguishing is ineffective due to the strong dispersion of the soil in a thin layer, as well as the loss of volume of the ejected soil when dust is formed. The proposed method of extinguishing a low-level fire involves the formation of a shaft of loosened soil above the ground and throwing it into the fire zone. In the process, a layer of soil is cut off, then raised and divided into separate layers. At the same time, moving soil layers have different trajectories and different speeds when entering the zone of fire movement. At the same time, it is covered with a certain layer of soil, which is necessary for extinguishing a ground forest fire at a high speed.(patent no. 2706040).

Forest Fire Protection

The analysis of the Concept of the draft Federal Law “Forest Code of the Russian Federation” proposed for discussion has shown that it is necessary to consider in detail the problems of organizing forest fire protection. In our opinion, the provisions of clause 3.7.7. The concepts require discussion of two important aspects of this activity. The first aspect concerns the implementation of forest fire protection in the territories provided for forestry on the basis of a license agreement and an agreement on the trust management of protective forests to legal entities and individuals. The second is the definition of the basic principles and criteria, based on which, the forests will be classified according to the methods of monitoring fire hazard and the use of fire extinguishing forces and means. The need to discuss the issue of consolidating the function of forest protection from fires for state specialized organizations of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation and the federal body responsible for the general management of the forest protection system is revealed. The study showed that with the modern organization of fire detection and extinguishing, the approach to zoning and methodological support for making a decision on the advisability of carrying out fire extinguishing work in hard-to-reach forests requires a more thorough justification. At the same time, the development of a methodology should proceed from the zoning goal to reduce damage from fires. When calculating, it is important to take into account not only economic losses, but also negative consequences in the social sphere and in the environmental situation.
