13 Changes in Wildfire Activity Climatic factor influence changes in wildfire activity on yearto-year (and decadal timescales) Fluctuations in temperature Drought conditions Effects of climatic phenomena like El Niño/La Niña. Earlier snowpack melting in spring
14 Development in Wildland Areas Since 1990, 60 percent of all new housing units in the United States were constructed in WUI zones. Locations where built structures abut or intermingle with undeveloped natural areas In 2010, the WUI was home to about 99 million people The states with the greatest number of homes in the WUI are CA, TX, FL, NC, and GA The WUI is located throughout the United States
15 Role of Building Materials Building materials influence fire protection Damage via direct contact, radiant heat, and embers/brands Significant damage due to embers/brands Construction materials for roof and sidings Type of construction (roof, sidings, and frame)
16 Wildfire Risk: Underwriting Perspective Is the property in an area with past wildfires? Which properties are at higher risk than others? Wildfire history Changes over time Risk scoring Station Fire, CA, Oct. 2009: Fuels analyzed in FireLine
17 Wildfire Risk: Claims Perspective Where are current wildfires burning? Which areas of exposure are likely to be affected? Satellites/Drones Weather Observations Sensor Networks Internetof-Things (IoT)
