Amen.
Thanks to all that sealife we have actual mountains of sequestered CO2 on earth.
All that dissolved CO2 in the oceans is turning the sea water into club soda, which is killing off a lot of that sealife.

I read an article on that a few years back. Apparently there is an escalator that works on a 300 year cycle so what is affecting sea life now was down there 300 years ago. Tonnington talked about it a bit. Have to try and find some of his old posts for more info.

You first. Explain how the atmospheric conditions are not influenced in any way by vegetation. Ever heard of shade? It's cooler n the shade than in the sun's radiation. Trees tend to add and take away moisture and gases. etcetera
If there's an overly dry season, there will likely be more fires. And conversely, if there is an overly wet season there will likely be fewer fires.

Well duh it doesn't take scientific studies to tell you that fire starts when it is dry and extinguishs when it is wet. Just go camping in the rain and try to start a fire to dry off :)

Not the way you are thinking.
The majority of fires are human caused. As more people go out into the wilderness there are more fires. Also to add to the biased numbers is poor forestry practices forced on us by the greenies. Mostly this is leaving too much fuel on the ground. We never had as much of a problem when we did slash burns.
Yes, the way I am thinking. Whether that fuel ignites and burns kind of depends upon the weather and climate. Notice there aren't very many fires around Kitimat, P. Rupert, etc. and lots of fires in California and other dry places.

That's why temperatures are taken in the shade of a white box in a field.

A healthy boreal forest can create it's own rain and thus climate. Our boreal forest isn't healthy and neither is Siberian boreal forest. It's supposed to burn.

Popular to contrary belief, boreal forest ecosystems are as new as modern man and interdependent on man setting it ablaze.

According to Smokey "only YOU can prevent forest fires" so don't f-cking blame me if modern ecosystems don't go up in smoke, it's your fault for stopping fire.
Yeah, that's pretty obvious and old news, really.

Ya think?

Before you go making fun of someone, make sure they aren't correcting mistakes. Like what startyed this conversation was Pete. He said, "Not after 75 years of human interference into natural fire cycles." I simply replied, "So you don't think climates and forestry are related? lol" To which he said, "No fire = weak, malnurtured, disease laden trees, with massive forest floor fuel build up.

The grasslands are suffering the same fate."
His "no" was dead wrong. You'd know that if you paid attention.

All weather and man screwing with the natural fire cycle. All post glaction forests have evolved with man.

Think how much boreal/taiga forest there is on earth.

You'll be quick to realize it's the largest and newest biome on earth that evolved along with homosapiens lighting it up regularly.

That's why I backed it up with a link.

Weather yes, climate no.

Climate is 30 years. 30 years of wet = dead trees. 30 years of drought = dead trees.

3 years of dry weather = higher fire risk. 3 years cool wet weather = low risk of fire.
