Forest fires pose a significant threat to ecosystems and socio-economic activities, necessitating the development of accurate predictive models for effective management mitigation. In this study, we present novel machine learning approach combined with Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) techniques predict forest fire susceptibility in Nainital district. Our innovative methodology integrates several robust — AdaBoost, Gradient Boosting Machine (GBM), XGBoost Random Deep Neural Network (DNN) as meta-model stacking framework. This not only utilises individual strengths these models, but also improves overall prediction performance reliability. By using XAI techniques, particular SHAP (SHapley Additive exPlanations) LIME (Local Interpretable Model-agnostic Explanations), improve interpretability provide insights into decision-making processes. results show effectiveness ensemble model categorising different zones: very low, moderate, high high. particular, identified extensive areas susceptibility, precision, recall F1 values underpinning their effectiveness. These achieved ROC AUC above 0.90, performing exceptionally well an 0.94. The are remarkably inclusion confidence intervals most important metrics all emphasises robustness reliability supports practical use management. Through summary plots, analyze global variable importance, revealing annual rainfall Evapotranspiration (ET) key factors influencing susceptibility. Local analysis consistently highlights importance rainfall, ET, distance from roads across models. study fills research gap by providing comprehensive interpretable modelling that our ability effectively manage risk is consistent environmental protection sustainable goals.
