Associate Professor of Environmental Studies and Science Matthew Aiello-Lammens, PhD, was quoted in a , and specifically, the recent wildfires in New York State, and whether these are expected to be annual occurrences or represent a rare coming together of atmospheric conditions.
Aiello-Lammens said, 糖心vlog短视频淭he new normal isn糖心vlog短视频檛 necessarily droughts or floods. The new normal is really the unpredictability of extreme events. It糖心vlog短视频檚 hard to know whether you糖心vlog短视频檙e going to get a drought year versus a flood year.

Warm, dry conditions are good for drying out the leaf material that糖心vlog短视频檚 dry and dead. And they糖心vlog短视频檙e good for moving fire once it gets going."
