A sudden mountain fire broke out in Liaokuo Mountain, Yunnan Province. Do you know what are the natural factors that cause mountain fires?

I know that the natural factors of mountain fires are mainly lightning. I work at the grass-roots level, located in a scenic spot with beautiful environment and rich vegetation. In order to avoid the destruction of forest vegetation, especially fire, people attach great importance to forest fire prevention, especially in special periods such as Spring Festival and Tomb-Sweeping Day. It can be said that in our place, 365 days a year is the fire prevention period, which makes people nervous at all times.

After years of fire prevention work, some fire prevention experiences are also summarized. Every year 10 to May of the following year is the high incidence period of forest fires. During this period, the leaves of plants will wither and scatter, and the weather will be dry and windy. If you encounter the following factors, it is easy to cause a fire. If not handled in time, it will turn into a fire.

First, human factors.

Human factors include smoking in the wild, burning weeds in the field, picnicking, burning fire paper when going to the grave and so on. In our place, the fire is most likely caused by burning paper money on the grave. Some people live far away. When they go home to sweep the grave, they light the paper and leave before the fire goes out. Often they walk on their front feet and the paper with fire is blown into the Woods by the wind. That's how the fire happened.

Countermeasures: Our good practice here is to ask each village to arrange special personnel to clean up the weeds on both sides of the road and around each grave in winter. We call it. Cut the grave grass? . By comparison, it is found that the effect of cutting is better than that of not cutting.

Second, natural factors.

Natural factors are mainly caused by lightning. The temperature in lightning is very high, and meeting dead branches and weeds can also cause forest fires, which is very common in daily life.

Countermeasures: strengthen inspections. We have full-time and part-time rangers here, and every area and even every hill is in charge.

Third, unexpected factors.

In our place, there are several fires related to electricity. First, the wires placed in the wild were not cut in time because the plants grew too high, and the wires were short-circuited due to contact. Another time, it was caused by a short circuit fire in a transformer standing in the field.

Countermeasures: Clean up the offline trees in time and remove weeds around the transformer.

Of course, daily publicity is also indispensable, such as the storage of fire fighting tools and the construction of emergency teams, which are the guarantee of forest fire prevention.
