About the Journal

Global Impact Journal: Fire, Safety, and Risk Management is a peer-reviewed international journal dedicated to publishing high-quality original research articles, comprehensive reviews, and selected high-impact reprints in the areas of science, policy, and technology of fires and their interactions with communities and the environment. The journal provides a global platform for advancing evidence-based knowledge in fire behaviour, risk assessment, and management strategies. It encourages interdisciplinary research, including studies on fire ecology and pyrogeography in natural, cultural, and industrial landscapes, case analyses of significant fire events, and methodological or technical contributions such as fire models, datasets, and analytical tools for cross-comparison. The journal also welcomes research on structural and building fire science including battery fires as well as historical, social, and policy perspectives on fire science and management.

Published tri-annually, the journal is available in both print and electronic formats, ensuring wide accessibility to the research community.

Scope:
The journal welcomes high-quality submissions in all aspects of fire science, policy, and technology. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to:

  • Fire behaviour, combustion physics, and thermochemical processes
  • Wildfires, agricultural burns, prescribed fires, and controlled laboratory experiments
  • Computational fire modelling, simulations, and predictive analytics
  • Remote sensing, GIS, geospatial analysis, and fire mapping techniques
  • Fire policy, governance frameworks, and management strategies
  • Community-based, indigenous, and governmental fire management practices
  • Fire impacts on vegetation, soils, hydrology, and ecosystem dynamics
  • Risk assessment, decision-support systems, and human behavioural studies
  • Material science, structural fire resistance, and building protection strategies
  • Smoke dynamics, heat transfer, and pyrogenic emissions
  • Post-fire recovery, ecological restoration, and environmental resilience
  • Paleoecology, dendrochronology, and fire as an ecosystem disturbance agent
