In Mediterranean climate regions like portions of California, a wetter-than-normal winter often leads to greater severity of fir
es the following summer. This seeming paradox occurs because increased rain leads to a. greater accumulation of chapparal biomassb. higher pollination rates of annual flowersc. greater recreational use of parklandsd. greater erosion and damage of access roads
Due to more wet conditions, the precipitation of that specific area remains higher than normal for a slightly long period increased parallel to the amount of precipitation. Due to this time slippage, algae, fungi and other biomass enhancing organism flourish very easily. They were dormant in normal winter but the slight time increase increases the biomass to a greater extend as you think. That make the fires to become more severe because of presence of mere organic biomass...
