Mitigate the erosion caused by wildfires

savE THE planet

Abilia Du Bombin, Jhuseidi Diaz and Marina Franquet

About our project

Info

  • Climate change mitigation
  • Track evolution of erosion in zones affected by wildfires
  • Data used from Copernicus Sentinel-2
  • Analysed with software QGIS

September 2018 (before wildfire occured)

September 2019(after wildfire occured)

What can be done to mitigate the erosion?

  • The technique we found more effective is mulching, that consists in covering the soil with organic materials or inorganic materials to protect and improve its quality.
  • The main goal of mulching is to create a barrier between the soil and the environment.
  • We will reinforce the area by applying mulching with plant remains from the region itself.

- Using tools as Forest Watch, which extracts data from images captured by Sentinel-2, we found where wildfires took place.- Later on, with QGIS we analysed the data determining the difference of vegetation with the NDVI.
