Sintesi	Forest fire risk assessment quantifies the probability and potential severity of wildfire in forest ecosystems, integrating stand structure, fuel characteristics, weather patterns, and topography. Developed by Van Wagner, Rothermel, and fire science communities, fire risk models predict fire ignition likelihood, fire behavior (spread rate, intensity), and consequences (area burned, damage extent). Essential for land management planning, community protection, and ecosystem conservation.	Silvicultural treatment design is the process of developing specific management prescriptions for forest stands to achieve defined objectives (timber yield, biodiversity, carbon storage, watershed protection). Codified in foundational texts by Smith and colleagues, silvicultural design integrates stand assessment, growth models, and ecosystem understanding to specify interventions (thinning, shelterwood, clear-cut, rotation-age modification) that steer forest development toward intended outcomes while respecting ecological constraints.
