The Washington Post maps disasters in the United States, with a page that shows maps of flood warnings, tornadoes and hurricanes, extreme heat and cold (see above), wildfires, lightning, and earthquakes and volcanoes. In the wake of a natural disaster there’s usually someone suggesting that ...
While we don’t always have the capacity to respond to current climate events, the wildfires in Canada this past summer were historic. I worked quickly to analyze, map, and chart the historically burned areas in Canada to illustrate how this summer’s wildfires were exponentially larger and occ...

Wildfires happen every 20-200 years, which clears the canopy and allows light to peak through, which in turn allows the before mentioned plants to flourish, among others. Boreal forests support a small range of animals, oddly enough this includes a few amphibians who are able to handle the ...
Wildfires and open burning The burning of plant matter emits large amounts of pollutants, as does burning other solid fuels like coal. Burning organic material emits particulate matter (PM), nitrogen oxides (NOx), carbon monoxide (CO), sulfur dioxide (SO2), lead, mercury, and other hazardous...
"If all of the current Our Ocean Conference's protected-area pledges were completed, 3.6% of the ocean would be protected, including 1.2% categorized as either 'fully' or 'highly' protected," said Lubchenco, an OSU distinguished professor. "Major progress has been made in ocean protection as...
wildfires, and numerous others. In addition to sight, tactile sensations produced by the event may also play a role. For example, during extreme heatwaves, the sensation of heat is intensified, while abrupt temperature drops tend to make cold sensations more pronounced. During floods, individuals...
It’s also changes to rainfall, increased risk of wildfires, more powerful hurricanes. The extent to which any of these are threats depends on where you live: North Dakota doesn’t have much to worry about rising sea levels, but it should think about drought. That’s what this interactive...
