Abstract:	The purpose of this paper is to examine the relation between government measures, volunteer participation, climate variables and forest fires. A number of studies have related forest fires to causes of ignition, to fire history in one area, to the type of vegetation and weather characteristics. Other studies have attempted to model the behavior of fire in specific spaces and times. Finally, a few studies relate volunteer participation and community institutions with fire control."
