@OfficialKamahl Hi mate — I made this for you:

The more you know, the more you realize how much you don’t know. The less you know, the more you think you know everything. Knowledge is humbling. Ignorance is arrogant.

New paper! We found that in watersheds across the western US, forests with higher fuel availability, higher forest connectivity, and lower heterogeneity had more area burned at high severity during recent wildfires (2001-2020): rdcu.be/dgot1 1/n

“…High-severity burn area increased with increasing fuel availability and connectivity and decreased with increasing heterogeneity. In 2020, multiple large high-severity burn areas occurred in forests with high fuel availability…” link.springer.com/article/10.100…

Wildfire risk reduction is increasingly important with changing climates, but the old approach needs changing. Flexibility is key
