| Abstract: | The results of a statistical analysis of the daily and mean monthly values of Angstrom Fire Index (AFI) for Baku (Azerbaijan) and Tbilisi (Georgia) in the period 2005-2024 are presented. AFI = (R/20) + (27-T)/10, where R is the minimum relative humidity, T is the maximum air temperature. The gradations of the values of I are as follows: I. AFI ≥ 4.1 – Low, II. AFI = 4.0 ÷ 3.0 - Moderate, III. AFI = 2.9 ÷ 2.5 - High, IY. AFI = 2.4 ÷ 2.0 - Very High, Y. AFI = <2.0 - Extreme. In particular, it was found that an extreme fire hazard in Baku and Tbilisi are observed on average within 75 days a year, but in general, the level of forest fire danger in Tbilisi is higher than in Baku. Between the daily and monthly mean values of AFI in Baku and Tbilisi direct linear correlation is observed. |
