Modelling of Wildfire Susceptibility in Different Climate Zones in Montenegro Using GIS-MCDA

Montenegro has different influences on the weather and climate; in general, according to Köppen’s classification, there are two climate zones: warm temperate (C) cold (D). The aim of this study is determine susceptibility wildfires Montenegrin coastal municipality Budva northern Rožaje, which located climatic conditions, using multicriteria GIS decision analysis (GIS-MCDA). Nine natural anthropogenic criteria were used for analysis. Open geospatial data as input all criteria. assignment weighting coefficients relation wildfire importance was based Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) Fuzzy (F-AHP) procedures. results AHP F-AHP models obtained Weighted Linear Combination (WLC) method. According model, very high category covers 80.93% total area 80.65% Rožaje. occupies 80.71% 82.30% validation shows that GIS-MCDA perform fair both zones. proposed models, especially absence data, can be a strategic operational advantage development plans strategies protection against wildfires.
