Abstract

In addition to climate change bringing high temperatures and drier weather, factors that increased the severity of wildfires or drought-factories caused by climatic change — factors that increase the severity of wildfires and fired forests—the potential of some forests to fully recover from such extreme weather conditions may be hampered or even weakened by past and present land management practices. At the moment, returning to normalcy may be difficult even in areas with occasional wildfires that are an integral part of ecosystem development. The long-term effects from human influenced change disrupt this natural dynamics and can lead to disruption for some reason even in areas where occasional wildfires are an integral part of ecosystem development, as the long-term effects of human-induced climatic change disrupt these natural dynamics. Wildfire intensity can lead to short-term increases in gasoline prices, long-term declines of carbon sequestration capabilities and an unexpected decrease in carbon stocks for the regions that have not experienced fire in the past.
