Forest Fire Disaster

This paper will look into the topic of community involvement in forest fire disaster prevention, specifically in Indonesia. To begin, the paper will discuss the problem of forest fires in Indonesia, which occur frequently. The study also addressed issues related to disaster management, such as a lack of competence and knowledge, which resulted in disaster management ineffectiveness. The paper's third portion discusses the government's involvement in catastrophe management. Several initiatives and support have been implemented.

Forest Fire Disaster

Forest fires are one of the global issues that attract worldwide attention. Russia, Brazil, Canada, the United States, and Indonesia are among the countries with the largest forest cover and long records of massive forest fires. Forest fire management is, therefore, critical to decreasing the severity level of these fires. Current conditions indicate that, compared with the four other countries, Indonesia has significantly reduced forest fires within the past five years. Consequently, adopting a global perspective to study the characteristics of forest fire disaster management has become necessary. For each management parameter, this research employed a literature review and descriptive analysis. The results showed that Indonesia had an advantage in the field of legal regulation. Indonesia tends to change its regulations within a short span of time, resulting in the number of forest fire incidents decreasing significantly compared with Russia, Brazil, Canada, and the United States. However, the country still has several weaknesses, namely in emergency responses, forest fire monitoring technology, and inter-institutional integration in forest fire disaster management.

This study aims to analyze the legislative and executive public officials' actions in establishing multi-regulatory policies regarding forest and land fire disaster management in Indonesia. The present study represents descriptive qualitative research. The theory of power and authority, public policy theory, and collaborative governance theory were utilized to sharpen the research results. The data was analyzed using an interactive analysis. The results of the analysis were based on ontology, epistemology, and sociology research. To empower the prevention of forest and land fires in Indonesia, a vision and mission of public policies related to forest and land fires are needed; building prevention and suppression facilties; providing information to companies and the community regarding regulations and sanctions if forest fires are carried out deliberately; and a balanced provision of good land management. Forest and land fires can also be reduced by proper forest management focused on reducing trees, bushes, and grass that are too dense in fire-prone areas because they are flammable and can facilitate bigger and longer fires. A forest with trees that are spaced out is a good preventive measure in fire management. The research result shows that public officials have made multi-regulations so that the implementation is not effective. The results of this research are to be able to revise regulations that public officials have made. The researchers suggest that relevant state institutions as public officials in making regulations on forest and land fire management in Indonesia should conduct it in the form of one regulation and one institution, covering the holistic governance of disaster reduction.

<p><em>Riau is one of the areas that often occurs due to haze disasters due to forest and land fires in Indonesia. One of the causes of fire is difficult to extinguish because most of the burned area is peatland. Several attempts have been made to deal with this forest and land fire disaster, both from the government, community and private sector. In this paper, we will discuss how to overcoming land and forest fire disasters in the Sungai Pakning, Bengkalis Regency through the PT Pertamina RU II Sungai Pakning Kampung Gambut Berdikari CSR program. The research method used descriptive qualitative research. The result is that the Kampung Gambut Berdikari Program is able to overcome the problem of land and forest fires in the Sungai Pakning, as evidenced in 2018 to 2020 in the Sungai Pakning region there has been no forest and land fires again (zero fire).</em></p>

The Impact

Abstract. The observations collected during the BOReal forest fires on Tropospheric oxidants over the Atlantic using Aircraft and Satellites (BORTAS) campaign in summer 2011 over Canada are analysed to study the impact of forest fire emissions on the formation of ozone (O3) and total peroxy nitrates ∑PNs, ∑ROONO2). The suite of measurements on board the BAe-146 aircraft, deployed in this campaign, allows us to calculate the production of O3 and of  ∑PNs, a long-lived NOx reservoir whose concentration is supposed to be impacted by biomass burning emissions. In fire plumes, profiles of carbon monoxide (CO), which is a well-established tracer of pyrogenic emission, show concentration enhancements that are in strong correspondence with a significant increase of concentrations of ∑PNs, whereas minimal increase of the concentrations of O3 and NO2 is observed. The ∑PN and O3 productions have been calculated using the rate constants of the first- and second-order reactions of volatile organic compound (VOC) oxidation. The ∑PN and O3 productions have also been quantified by 0-D model simulation based on the Master Chemical Mechanism. Both methods show that in fire plumes the average production of ∑PNs and O3 are greater than in the background plumes, but the increase of ∑PN production is more pronounced than the O3 production. The average ∑PN production in fire plumes is from 7 to 12 times greater than in the background, whereas the average O3 production in fire plumes is from 2 to 5 times greater than in the background. These results suggest that, at least for boreal forest fires and for the measurements recorded during the BORTAS campaign, fire emissions impact both the oxidized NOy and O3,  but (1 ∑PN production is amplified significantly more than O3 production and (2) in the forest fire plumes the ratio between the O3 production and the ∑PN production is lower than the ratio evaluated in the background air masses, thus confirming that the role played by the ∑PNs produced during biomass burning is significant in the O3 budget. The implication of these observations is that fire emissions in some cases, for example boreal forest fires and in the conditions reported here, may influence more long-lived precursors of O3 than short-lived pollutants, which in turn can be transported and eventually diluted in a wide area.

Suspicious Area

Poyang Lake Ecological Economic Zone has large forest area, so it's very important to construct prevention forest fire disaster system. This paper presents an algorithm for prevention forest fire disaster based on digital image processing technology. The algorithm distinguishes the realtime forest video by smoke and fire. To determine whether there are some suspicious area in the image in the spatial domain by judging the color properties of smoke and fire through Clustering Algorithm. If it detects any suspicious circumstances, then fixes ccd and detects the suspicious areas in the time domain. In this step, firstly get the initial detect results by wavelet decomposition , then use the k-means clustering algorithm for the spread detection of smoke. Experimental results show that the algorithm is ideal for the experimental video. It alarms before the fire disaster occurs to avoid major fire disaster, which protects the forest resources in the Poyang Lake Ecological Economic Zone.
