FFDI = 2e^{-0.45+0.987*Ln(DF)-0.0345RH+0.0338T+0.0234v}  \end{equation}  Where:  DF: Drought Factor\n  RH: Relative Humidity (%) \n (percentage)  T: Temperature (\textsuperscript{o}C) \n (^{o}C)  v: Wind speed (Km/h) \n \end{equation}  This empirical index is valid for the Southeastern forest ecosystem of Australia. In this wildfire-prone ecosystem, the eucalyptus is the dominant vegetation. On the other side of the world, Latin-America —including Ecuador— experienced a massive introduction of this specie \cite{Anchaluisa2013}.Thus, is reasonable to expect that this index may represent the Ecuadorian wildfire potential.
