According to scientists, the forest fires in Greece, Turkey and Cyprus this summer, according to scientists, were 22 % more severe and 10 times more likely this summer.
According to global weather researchers, the extremely hot, dry and strong wind conditions that occur once every century once every century, a group of scientists who use the influence of climate change on highly events, are using a speedy study. The world has experienced a 1.3C degree to warm up because already industrial times mean that such events can now happen once in 20 years.
“We are watching a dark picture for the forests of Southern Europe,” said Backium Ekbersda, a researcher at the Eurasia Institute of Earth Sciences in Istanbul. “With climate change, weather conditions are allowed to burn faster, we will see the forest fires big, more severe and more often.”
Europe has faced the worst year on the record of forest fire, which has burned more than one million hectares in the entire region. The continent is getting heated rapidly compared to another and the Mediterranean is a hotspot for climate change, with heat waves, drought and strong winds more often and intense. At least 20 people were killed and more than 80,000 people were evacuated in Turkey, Cyprus and Greece due to a fire in June and July.
“We have a fire in places we didn’t expect,” said Axa’s chair in Crete’s Technical University, Technical University of Crete. In Greece, “this is the third consecutive summer, which is a disastrous fire season that is unique in many ways.”
To fix the amount of climate change effect on the forest fire, scientists analyzed weather data and climate models to compare how events open in a planet without heat. This is a study of the first high -speed attribution on forest fires in Europe, and researchers draw from their experience with a previous study, focusing on the Blaze in Canada in 2023.
The scientists of their calculations, scientists used Canada matriculation, showing how difficult it is to start once the fire extinguisher, and another that focuses on the risk of fire by looking at the effects of hot and dry air plants. They also analyzed rain trends during the winter before the fire season.
Masa Wilberg, a technical adviser at the Red Cross Red Crescent Center Center, said that governments are used to fire in the region and learn from past disasters, but this year the challenges are very high. “Even with hundreds of pre -deployed firefighters, reinforcements from neighboring countries, and even with water -falling planes, the cats have been catastrophic.”
In Turkey, in Turkey, a severe forest fire in June, before normal, surprising officials, researchers and predictions were caught. He said the fact is that people had started the fire mostly, it is very difficult to predict them. On the contrary, Greece has improved its capacity to extinguish the fire and extinguish them before it grew, Volugrokes said. But it can do more about prevention.
“These are the areas where we are not well ready,” he said. “Because it takes time, and because it needs a strong political will.”
