Scientific American web article “What Megafires Can Teach Us about California Megafloods”.

Aug 17, 2022 | Sustainable Development News, Water-related News

The Scientific American webpage published on August 16, 2022 an article “What Megafires Can Teach Us about California Megafloods”, concluding that catastrophic megafloods formerly happened about once every 100 to 200 years in California, but climate change has increased those odds.

You are invited to read also other contributions in the field of Climate Change.
