Fire weather outlook, seasonal position, chaqueo calendar & sector risk — prevention phase, Institutional Action Plan 2022

Season position — hotspot climatology

MEAN MONTHLY VIIRS DETECTIONS, REFERENCE REGION 2015–2025 · CURRENT MONTH MARKED

The project area is entering the peak of the burn season (Aug–Oct historically carries ~74% of annual detections). Detection cadence is 6–8 overpasses/day; night passes (~01:30 BOT) are the earliest confirmation window for persistent fronts. Expect elevated false positives from authorized chaqueo outside the PA — cross-check every detection against the burn-permit register before escalating.
