MAPP-funded research finds risk of large California fires increases substantially to one unit degree change in temperature

With warming temperatures and severe droughts, the state of California has seen an increase in fire activity. Due to rising global temperatures, this upward trend is expected to continue in areas with available fuel, stressing the need for reliable estimates of future fire statistics.
