TLDR
This paper used gradient boosted regression models to generate burn probability surfaces using band values and spectral indices from individual Landsat scenes, lagged reference conditions, and change metrics between the scene and reference predictors.

Rapid growth of the US wildland-urban interface raises wildfire risk

TL;DR: The wildland-urban interface (WUI) is the area where houses and wildland vegetation meet or intermingle, and where wildfire problems are most pronounced, and grew rapidly from 1990 to 2010, making it the fastest-growing land use type in the conterminous United States.
