They also prevent soil degradation and erosion, protect water springs, maintain the stability of mountains, and contribute to protecting animals from extinction, as the forest is considered a natural reserve and an important source of minerals and raw materials. Forests throughout the ages played a huge cultural and historical role as they were home to the human element since ancient times, and despite the importance of forests, reports still indicate the continuous deterioration in this vast area, through the fires that this green area is exposed to all over the world, so We decided to study this problem, and it is the subject of our research, in which we tried to measure the impact of some variables on forest fires in Algeria during the period 1990-2021. In it, we dealt with a theoretical aspect of forests, their types, and the causes of fires. We even touched on some statistics related to the forest area in Algeria and the extent of the damage that this area was exposed to as a result of this phenomenon. The number of fires during the study period, and we discovered that the number of fires in recent years witnessed a continuous and noticeable decrease, and this is due to the application of laws and the strictness of the state apparatus with regard to the protection of forest property and the interest in this aspect by the state and the awareness of citizens of the importance of this vital resource .
