Ein Hauptgrund für die Feuer in Los Angeles ist, dass die globale Erhitzung den Beginn der Regenfälle nach hinten verschoben hat. Dieses Phänomen war von Wissenschftlern vorausgesagt worden. Bisher gab es in Kalifornien um diese Zeit keine Waldbrände. Gespräch mit dem Forscher Eric Rigolo die Gründe der Katastrophe https://www.liberation.fr/environnement/incendies-a-los-angeles-nous-assistons-a-un-basculement-important-dans-la-saisonnalite-des-feux-20250115_2RPAYNV4HRDW7MAMEZQJBZT2YM/

in the deserts the Southern California coastal region reaches some of its highest annual temperatures in Autumn rather than summer when these winds are going on frigid dry Arctic air from Canada tends to create the most intense Santa Ana winds

the air warms adiabatically which means that it depends on the lapse rate as you as you go to lower and lower altitudes um the temperature increases so the lapse rate is actually the drop of temperature as you get further from the surface of the Earth in dry air the adiabatic lapse rate is n about 10° CS per kilometer or about a degree celsius per uh 100 MERS okay so the as the air is coming down it's warming about 1° cels for each 100 meters of desent

these winds um get compressed they increase in speed uh to often to near gale force winds or above and du to this Venturi effect where the winds get compressed into a smaller area so be for constant flow rate the velocity has to be much higher in this region than in this region just because there's less space for the air to be so it goes into these canyons and gets compressed and gets accelerated to very high speeds

// - COMMENT - Paul brings up a very good point. There is an existing low cost innovation that was pioneered and successfully deployed in Canada that could have prevented the destruction of many of the buildings that were destroyed, namely - rooftop sprinkler systems - There are many rooftop sprinker systems available now. They should actually be mandated into law to have one in high risk fire areas. - https://search.brave.com/search?q=canada+forest+fire+prevention+rooftop+sprinkler+system&source=desktop&summary=1&conversation=375a9992d731deff34143a

// - comment - Paul provides a climate analysis of the overarching climate conditions that enabled the 2025 Los Angeles fires - The Santa Ana winds are a natural occurrence in this area but the climate change induced abnormalities have brought about alternating cycles of heavy rain and drought conditions - The preceding heavy rain period resulted in enormous growth of vegetation - The last two months of extreme drought conditions dried up all this additional growth creating enormous amounts of fuel for a fire - It was interesting to learn that cold air from the arctic plays a critical role in the Santa Ana winds, but Paul did not provide an explanation - This is one example of how the earth system is so interconnected

Eric Holthaus sieht die Feuer in Los Angeles als Symbole einer neuen Ära komplexer Klimakatastrophen. Nie zuvor haben Bedingungen wie jetzt in Kalifornien geherrscht. So gab es in Kalifornien nach dem ersten tropischen Sturm der Geschichte die bisher längste Trockenphase. Zum jetzt ausgebrochenen Sturm trugen vermutlich auch Veränderungen des Jet Streams bei https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/jan/09/los-angeles-wildfires-climate-disasters

Über 25 Städte haben sich inzwischen dem plant based treaty angeschlossen, darunter Edinburgh Amsterdam und Los Angeles und eine Reihe indischer Städte. Viel ist nicht die völlige Eliminierung von Fleisch und Milch aus der lokalen Küche sondern ihre Klima- und gesundheitsfreundliche konsequente Reduzierung. Vorbild ist die Initiative für den fossil fuel non poliforation pretty. .https://www.nytimes.com/2024/02/28/climate/plant-based-treaty-climate.html

The smallest collection of card catalogs is near the librarian’s information desk in the Social Science/Philosophy/Religion department on lower level three. It is rarely used and usually only by librarians. It contains hundreds of cards that reflect some of the most commonly asked questions of the department librarians. Most of the departments on the lower levels have similar small collections. Card catalog behind the reference desk on lower level three, photo credit: Tina Lernø

COVID-19 has remained the leading infectious cause of death in L.A. County
L.A county still being infected with lots of cases is crazy. There are still cases being made and it's still very dangerous especially with people who don't even have their vaccines or boosters. Its especially dangerous for older people.

The two sections of the index, then, went different ways: when Marcus opened‘branches’ of his archive in Los Angeles, New York, and Jerusalem, he microfilmedportions of his archival collections and also the Americana part of Deutsch’s cards. Bycontrast, the remaining cards were left to languish at Hebrew Union College’s Cincinnatilibrary.

He outspent Bass by very wide margins, largely using his own money (see below).
What the hell is Rick Caruso doing spending over $100M!! to defeat Karen Bass? He put in $101,477,500 of his own money along with $3.4M from a group opposing Bass compared to Bass's roughly $18M raise.
So many better things he could have done with that money, if in fact, people really think that he's got ideas that will actively make the city better.
Caruso outspent Bass 5 to 1.
Caruso spent $400 per vote for the 252,476 votes he got (as of 2022-11-09 9:24 AM).

This is a stunningly excellent little series! It started auto streaming last night after I watched PBS News Hour and I watched it in the background all evening.
I'd seen at least one episode previously, but definitely worth re-watching in its entirety. So much history hiding around us...

The mansion sits on the same land where Sharon Tate and four others were murdered by the Manson family in the summer of 1969.Back then, the property’s address was 10050 Cielo Dr., but in 1994, real estate investor Alvin Weintraub demolished the house and changed the address to 10066 Cielo Dr. in an attempt to separate the estate from its dark past.

Near-infrared photography captures, in pictures, reflected light that lies outside the visible light spectrum, or what humans can see Near-infrared light on the electromagnetic spectrum has wavelengths that are longer than visible light but slightly shorter than mid- or far-infrared11 Photosynthesizing plants absorb most visible light and reflect near-infrared light Thus, a near-infrared photograph can visually show areas with high or low degrees of photosynthesis, an indicator of plant health (Figures 46 and 47)12 The photographs can be taken with a near-infrared camera or by purchasing a kit to alter a traditional digital camera Post-processing software can be used on the photograph to analyze plant health1
