Analysis of time regimes in fire sequences occurred in Patagonia, Argentina

Time regimes in fire data recorded from 1992 to 2007 in a fire vulnerable area of Patagonia (Argentina) were revealed by using the Allan Factor statistics. The obtained results show the presence of seasonal periodicities, superimposed to three time-scaling regimes, which characterize the point process of the fire sequence as a fractal time process with a rather high degree of time-clusterization of the events.
