The problem of wildfires is very urgent for the floodplain landscapes of the Lower Volga area. This area is of great value and includes a network of specially protected natural areas. Annual fires destroy the habitats of animals, lead to smoke coverage of settlements and to emissions of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. The territory under study with a total area of about 2.2 million hectares includes four hydrological and geomorphological regions: the northern and central (middle) parts of the Volga-Akhtuba floodplain, the Volga delta and the ilmen-mound area. For each of the above areas, the spatio-temporal regularities of fire rate were determined on the basis of the materials of expert interpretation of Landsat data. Over 45 thousand fire sites were identified during the period of 2001–2020. The share of the area covered by fire on the territory of floodplain landscapes during the study period was 58 %, about half of which burned three or more times. In the northern and central parts, a decrease in the number and area of fires was observed. In the delta area, on the contrary, their growth was noted. We have established the interdependence between the fire rate and the hydrological conditions of seasonal floods. The earlier the flood begins and later ends, the higher its level and the less the number of fires and burned-out areas. In the delta area this interdependence is stronger than in the northern and central parts of the Volga-Akhtuba floodplain. Trends in hydrological changes in recent decades have shown a decrease in flood levels and duration, while delta flooding is worsening due to a drop in the Caspian Sea level. Therefore, in the conditions of maintaining the current level of fire prevention, we can expect a further increase in the incidence of fire in floodplain landscapes.
