At least 30% of the #dixiefire burned at high severity from thick, fire-void forests. Also a contributing factor was the extremely dry fuel loads. Learn more about it in episode 2.

Thanks for this illustration on how small, dense fuel loads can create severe burning. I explore this with @firebobbc in episode 3 which is dropping next week.

Episode 2 explores the shifting fire regime in the area of the Dixie Fire.

"It’s not a matter of if, it’s a matter of when those places are going to burn.”

Head over to https://t.co/7nS3ABxHTs to listen. Episode 3 is on its way!

"An unprecedented drought on top of a long term trend of increasing temperatures in the region and declining snowpacks at higher elevations, so it’s really a climate driven phenomenon." Here this and more on episode 2.

[Richard Bednarski @ConverseClimate]

"If [the landscape] burns at high severity it’s going to be likely to burn at high severity again.” US Forest Service Ecologist Kyle Merriam talks about reburn severity in episode 2.

Of note: the floating ice shelves that melt, while they don't increases sea level, result in the land ice to flow and melt quicker, which will lead to an increases in sea levels.
