Abstract

The hazard risk and disaster degree of damage was confirmed about the forest and grassland fire in Inner Mongolia by the occurrence rule of fires, distribution of high temperature points, characteristic of distribution of vegetation types, and the extent of road coverage. Production of risk assessment and regionalization of forest and grassland fires was made by CIS, risk of fires in forest and grassland is classified as safe zones, warning zones, general risk zones, moderate risk zones and high risk zones.
