Descripció del contingut i pla d'activitats:
Los grandes incendios forestales son uno de los riesgos medioambientales más importantes a nivel mundial y en específicamente en el territorio Mediterráneo.
La propuesta de TFG consiste en el generar una metodología y aplicarlo en un caso de estudio para integrar el riesgo de incendio
forestal en la planificación territorial y de paisaje. El caso de estudio se desarrolla en la Sierra de l'Ordal,en el área Metropolitana de Barcelona.

Overview (resum en anglès): The socioeconomic changes that have developed in Catalonia in recent decades have shaped a landscape very vulnerable to large forest fires, to which new factors of climate change have been added.

In the face of this problem, political decisions have focused on extinguishing fires, investing thousands of resources to prevent an inevitable phenomenon. The extinction of small fires leads to the development of large fires, a phenomenon known as the extinction paradox.

This work proposes to reverse the paradox, that is, to implement the use of fire as a management tool in those areas where it is viable to reduce their vulnerability. In other words, planning small fires to prevent large fires.

Contrary to what much of the population thinks, the role of fire in Mediterranean climates has been key to the development of an ecology linked to specific fire regimes. Our landscape has burned, burns, and will continue to burn, and therefore, we have the responsibility to integrate it again into our social and ecological processes with the aim of eventually living with it.

However, we must keep in mind that fires do not always have a beneficial role and be aware that the dynamics of our ecosystems are determined by the fire regime and its recurrence.

With the aim of proposing future project lines for the integration of fire in territorial planning, a methodology has been generated to analyze and diagnose the study area corresponding to the Homogeneous Regime Zone 67.

Finally, as a conclusion, new landscape units linked to large forest fires have been created, generating a series of integration hypotheses for each of the cases.
