摘要:Recent wildfire outbreaks during a period of geomagnetic storms in October 2003 may be linked to electrical emanations from within the earth. Efforts to understand the behavior of these fire outbreaks and create forecasting tools is an ongoing commercial development linked to new theoretical considerations in tectonics and geomagnetic induction from solar coupling. Historical evidence from the most powerful space storm on record in September 1859, hints at the relationship to wildfires when telegraph wires shorted out in the United States and Europe, igniting widespread fires1. The strong solar storms that hit Earth in the final week of October 2003 were small in comparison to the 1859 [1] event but may have electromagnetically induced an arced shaped pattern of fires. The fire pattern follows crustal magnetic anomaly trends arcing eastward just north of Los Angeles then southward around San Diego extending into the Mexican Baja along the coast (Fig1).
