⚠️ | Silent Victims | “Smoke travels across continents. Wildlife cannot.” 🔥🌲🐿️💔 🌡️ Temperature Levels in North American Mega Wildfires • Surface and Ground Fires: In fires burning grasses, shrubs, and leaf litter at ground level, temperatures typically range between 300°C and 600°C. • Crown Fires: When flames reach the tree canopy and spread rapidly with the wind, temperatures rise to around 800°C – 1,000°C. In dense coniferous forests, these values can be even higher. • Extreme Hotspots: In the most intense flame cores — where wind pumps oxygen and resins/gases ignite — temperatures can reach 1,100°C – 1,200°C. These temperatures melt aluminum and soften or melt glass, destroying many materials. (Pure iron melts at 1,538°C.) 🌲 The Hidden Danger in Boreal Forests: Underground Fires Beneath boreal forests lies a thick layer of peat and organic soil, sometimes several meters deep. This layer is responsible for the most persistent and insidious part of these wildfires: • Even after surface flames are extinguished, the peat layer continues smoldering at 300°C – 600°C. • These underground fires can burn for months, even under snow cover. They are known as “zombie fires” (overwintering fires). • Zombie fires destroy root systems, organic soil structure, and entire ecosystems. Months after the surface fire ends, they can reignite and spark new wildfires.👇 #CanadaWildfires #Wildfires2026 #Biodiversity #ClimateChange #smoke
