Abstract: Background and Objective: Dachigam National Park in Kashmir, India is the only habitat in the world to critically endangered species, Kashmir Stag (Cervus hanglu). One of the reasons of its dwindling population has been associated with the frequent fires that occur in dachigam national park. Besides, the forest fires have also been associated with ecological disturbance in the area. This study assessed the forest fire vulnerability of this area using remote sensing and Geographical Information System (GIS) in order to prioritize the area into different forest fire vulnerability zones. Materials and Methods: The data used included, (1) Advanced spaceborne thermal emission and reflection radiometer, digital elevation model (ASTER GDEM, 30 m), (2) Indian Remote Sensing (IRS) LISS-III data (23.5 m), (3) Survey of India (SOI) topographical maps of 1967 (1:50000 scale) and (4), Moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer (MODIS) fire product. These datasets were used to generate topographic, land use; vegetation and other biophysical parameters to classify the study area into four fire vulnerability zones using GIS based multicriteria analysis model. Results: It was found that out of the total 164.55 km2 area of the park, 24.95 km2 (15.16%) of area falls in very high vulnerability zone, 89.67 km2 (54.49%) of area falls in high vulnerability zone, 44.51 km2 (27.05%) of area falls in medium vulnerability zone, whereas 5.42 km2 (3.29%) of area falls in low vulnerability zone. The results were validated with the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectro-Radiometer (MODIS) satellite-based fire information product and the observational data. Conclusion: The study concluded that more than 50% area of the national park is very highly vulnerability to forest fires. In this context, the study shall guide in mitigating the causes behind the forest fire in the area through proper planning and management to minimize their frequency.
