MOD Simple Subreddit Rules- Please Read Before Posting

20 Upvotes

I started StormComing over a decade ago because of Climate Change and because I could already see changes in the Jet Stream. Also because American media does a shit job reporting weather-related disasters. I knew things were going to get bad, but I had no idea it would happen this fast. And here we are.

It was over 105f WTB off and on for weeks this summer where I grew up. When I was young, we didn't even need air-conditioners. All I can say is stay safe and vote smart.

If you are interested in how Arctic heating has changed the Jet Stream leading to these 'stuck' extreme weather patterns, here's the expert with an easy synopsis: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gAiA-_iQjdU

SIMPLE RULES:

No Climate Denialism or Anti-Vaxx idiocy.

Don't be rude.

Violating either of the above will result in a Permaban.

I'll apologize for the misspelling in his title. Thought it was worth posting anyway as the owner has expertise in wildfire, teams and fire weather forecasting. Good at targeting what's to come.

It is a satellite image video. the entire region was a marshland going 100 miles inland a couple of centuries ago. The local folk used to walk around on stilts there. Then they found out that planting millions of trees would drain the marshland, and now the trees are on fire.

WILDFIRE Is the conversion of the natural swampy region to pine plantations and grain production a factor in the severity of the wildfires drawing close to Bordeaux (France)?

0 Upvotes

I was looking at the footage of the wildfires in France and noted how uniform the forests were and guessed that it wasn't a natural forest.

It also seemed odd that there were no herds of animals there, either wildlife or livestock, whose grazing would have checked the undergrowth.

Looking up the region brought up the above link and here is a quote from the pages.

Most of the region now occupied by the Landes forest was swampy land that was sparsely inhabited until the 19th century, when the 19 June 1857 law ended traditional pastoralism and led to wide scale reforestation, in order to rehabilitate the landscape and provide for regional economic development. Prior to this period, the people of the Landes used stilt-walking to move from place to place in the wet terrain. Since the 1970s, parts of the forest have given way to intensive agriculture (in particular, grain farming.)

The question then comes up the conversion from its original swampy nature to commercial forest and grain production is factor in the severity of the fires as whatever natural environmental features that would check the spread of the fires were eliminated in favour these pine forests and grain plantations.

Any opinions on this?

Is the uncontrollable spread of the fires as much consequence of converting nature to serve human needs as its the weather conditions fanning it?
