Wetenschappers vinden directe relatie tussen Black Summer branden en daaropvolgende overstromingen

SPACE AUSTRALIA BUSHFIRES

A handout photo made available by the European Space Agency (ESA) shows an image acquired by the Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellites mission of smoke, flames and burn scars over the east coast of Australia, 31 December 2019 (issued 12 January 2020). Ferocious bushfires have been sweeping across Australia since September 2019, fuelled by record-breaking temperatures, drought and wind. Source: AAP / ESA HANDOUT/EPA

Voor het eerst hebben wetenschappers een directe link kunnen leggen tussen de rook van bosbranden en weerpatronen die verband houden met grootschalige overstromingen. Centraal in het onderzoek staan de verwoestende bosbranden tijdens Black Summer in 2019 en de maanden van overstromingen die daarop volgden.
