"The most disastrous fires in terms of loss of human lives and property are less tied to anomalous fuel loads than they are to extreme wind events." We can do better understanding fire risk by modeling extreme wind potential. https://t.co/uFi4DL0pur
@InfoScape_Chat @RosieTroost @Frankva96164599 @TrentTelenko @oryxspioenkop I thought this was interesting, it shows how fuel loading not only is a result from fire suppression but forest management. https://t.co/2Aoy8BcN5J https://t.co/o0UCw4f2tG
@JamesGr93555377 Right. Rising population at urban forest interface is resulting in more fire damage https://t.co/HkwiY3Qezc

@JaredDahlAldern @BurtStalter @wildland_zko @cxadlam ...hazardous fuels. Certainly, part of the reason is that young plantations often “require” fire suppression for decades to establish, and so anomalous fuel loads are due as much to silvicultural practic
@gopTODD @GavinNewsom I'm grateful that the majority of Utah govt & citizens support reasonable timber sales and healthy grazing practices which reduces hazardous fuel loads in our Utah forests. However, increased winds and temperature are not @Gavi
Great study showing wildfires can be wind-dominated or fuel-dominated, requiring different protection strategies https://t.co/T9G64PeaOv
Important paper on CA fires. Compares: fuel-dominated (& headline-dominating) v wind-dominated (& life+property damaging) fires. Suggests where thinning/burning is appropriate and where community retrofits/planning are appropriate. https://t.co/

De lo mejor y más completo que he leído sobre protección de población frente IF en la IUF y estrategias de gestión para disminución del riesgo y vulnerabilidad. Ideas básicas extrapolables a entornos mediterráneos. https://t.co/9RPR5Lp39g
Thanks for sharing 🙏, subtleties & interactions between weather / wind & fuel condition & quantities @fireregimes has seen both our Heather shrub habitat & chaparral.

“fuel-dominated and wind-dominated fires [in CA] tend to differ in their geog. distribution, fire history, source of ignition, seasonal timing, and resources most at risk, as well as mgmt responses likely to reduce impacts of future fires.” https://t.co/G
Fires clearly recognizable as fuel-dominated vs. wind-dominated provide interesting case studies of factors behind these two extremes. #CaliforniaWildfires #wildfireresearch #wildfireinsurance #beprepared #StaySageSafe https://t.co/q8eRy7rzJN
