New precedent in scale & intensity of #Siberia/#Arctic #wildfires compared to previous 17 years in the #Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service GFAS data based on MODIS obs https://confluence.ecmwf.int/display/CKB/CAMS%3A+Global+Fire+Assimilation+System+%28GFAS%29+data+documentation … (145 Mt CO2 in July 2020 vs. 182 Mt CO2 total for 2019) #ArcticFirespic.twitter.com/6iy9opOe40

Comparing the annual total estimated
#wildfire CO2 emissions for the#ArcticCircle from 2003 to 2020 (up to 31 July 2020) shows that this year is already the highest for the region in the GFAS dataset.pic.twitter.com/qKAGfqReSE

Nature made wood and dead vegetation flammable for a reason! "Wildfires are a naturally occurring process, an important component to pine forest ecosystems, and a natural ‘change agent’. No doubt much of below applies to Siberian forests https://www.nps.gov/articles/researching-the-effects-of-wildland-fire.htm …pic.twitter.com/T5SshMmoce

Please see this analysis which shows a fuller breakdown of the ecosystems affected, and the degree to which the fires are affecting the less fire prone tundra.https://twitter.com/DrTELS/status/1285514278527737858?s=19 …
New spatial analysis of wildfires across the Arctic in May/June 2020, and how they compare to the satellite record (2003-2020). What is burning? Are there peat fires? What about permafrost?
