Abstract

This paper studies the tendencies of average intensity of water exchange (AIWE) for various areas of Siberia in the modern period. The calculation of AIWE is based on data of ERA5 reanalysis. The areas were identified where the interannual decreasing tendencies for AIWE prevail, while the number of registered large forest fires over them increased. Such areas are most common in the territories, where in the period of 2012–2020 years. forest fires occurred most frequently and caused the greatest environmental and economic damage. AIWE estimates for identified areas of Siberia have properties that allow them to be considered as adequate potential fire hazard indicators.
