Title: Assessment and Analysis of Forest Fires in Bulgaria †
Keywords: assessment, forest fire, pollution

Abstract: Forest fires exert detrimental effects on the economic, social, and ecological well-being of both individual nations and expansive geographical regions. These fires lead to the destruction of substantial quantities of valuable timber, the degradation of forest plantations, extensive deforestation, a decline in the protective functions of forests, diminished effectiveness in safeguarding water resources, and heightened soil erosion, particularly in mountainous terrain. Concurrently, agricultural production faces deteriorating conditions, and both wildlife and human populations, along with their production facilities, residences, infrastructure, and other assets, become exposed to significant hazards as a direct or indirect consequence of these raging infernos. The data that are used and analysed are for the period 1980–2018.
