All annual rainfall occurs in the wet season, hence in the dry season bushfires are extremely frequent: there is no moisture, fuel is provided by the grasses and the ignition source is usually lightning as in Darwin lightning storms are very common. The vegetation mostly consists of continuous...
bushfires, floods and other extreme weather events worldwide3,7,8,9. Potential future changes in such extreme El Niño occurrences could have profound socio-economic consequences. Here we present climate modelling evidence for a doubling in the occurrences in the future in response to greenhouse ...
Further compounding this issue, farming communities are expected to be impacted by increasing frequency and intensity of weather events such as drought, flooding, and bushfires in coming years [29,30,31]. Prolonged drought, flooding, and bushfires are thought to have serious, negative implications...
