摘要
The wildland-urban interface: a new risk prone area in Spain. The spreading of the wildland-urban interface in Spain, related to the increasing sprawl of human settlements and also to the progression of natural vegetation, constitutes a worrying territorial dynamics in connection to the problem of wildland fires. Despite the increase in number of episodes of wildland-urban fires, there is neither social awareness nor political concern on this matter. This results in a shortage of laws and management on these new territories at risk.
