What is the reason for the sudden mountain fire near Yugan section of Hangchang Expressway in Jiangxi Province?

According to relevant media reports, a mountain fire occurred near S36 section of yugan county in Jiangxi section of Hangchang Expressway. Through the live video, we can see that the open flame burns from the tree to the top of the tree and spreads rapidly. The fire was caused by coniferous forest vegetation in the forest, and the fire area was about 300 square meters. Therefore, from the relevant data, the scale of this mountain fire is still relatively large, and the local fire fighting is nearing completion.

What is the cause of the mountain fire?

There are only two reasons for the formation of mountain fires, one is natural and the other is man-made. However, according to relevant data, in fact, mountain fires caused by human factors will be higher than natural factors.

1, natural factors. If it is a natural mountain fire, it mostly happens in spring. Due to the dry and rainy weather in spring, when there is water shortage in mountainous areas, it is easy to cause mountain fires. Natural reasons, including high weather temperature and dry weather, cause relatively high ground temperature. In this case, some dead leaves on the ground will become the products of rapid combustion, which will easily lead to forest fires. In addition, in thunderstorm weather, if there is lightning fire, it will also lead to forest fires, as well as volcanic eruption factors, which will also induce this phenomenon.

2. Human factors. According to relevant data, 90% of the causes of the fire are man-made. In addition to arson, burning paper, burning wasteland, carrying kindling, unlit cigarette butts, intentional arson and other factors may lead to the occurrence of mountain fires. When the fire is big, it is difficult to control.

Content summary.

According to the above, we can know that the causes of mountain fires are mainly in two aspects, the first is caused by natural factors, and the second is caused by human factors. But in general, the cause of mountain fires is more likely to be caused by human factors. However, whether it is global warming or man-made fires, we should be vigilant and have relevant awareness, so as to effectively reduce the probability of mountain fires.
