印度尼西亚9月过火面积一个月翻倍:累计192万公顷超过2019年同期

印度尼西亚的山火数据在10月20日更新。据森林监测机构 Nusantara Atlas 的卫星数据,印度尼西亚全国累计过火面积8月底为895,650公顷,到9月底跳升至192万公顷(约474万英亩),一个月内翻了一倍多,并超过2019年同期的139万公顷;2019年全年最终过火面积为263万公顷。
截至10月20日,Nusantara Atlas 的火点图在印度尼西亚全境记录到约115万个火点。这场持续数月的山火已造成空气污染和呼吸系统问题,浓烟跨境飘散至邻国新加坡、马来西亚和东帝汶。印度尼西亚卫生部此前公布的数据显示,截至10月12日,仅7个省与山火相关的呼吸道疾病病例就达277,075例。
为压制火势,印度尼西亚在 Sumatra 和 Kalimantan 两岛开展人工影响天气作业,播云作业已在多个火点带来降雨并改善空气质量。其中 West Kalimantan 的作业规模最大,过去四周共出动107架次。
印度尼西亚总统发言人 Prasetyo Hadi 在一份声明中说明作业方式:“我们先用干冰驱散烟雾、让阳光透入,帮助触发雨云形成,再用盐进行播云作业。”当局表示相关灭火与人工增雨行动仍在持续。
Indonesia's Burned Area Doubles in a Month to 1.92 Million Hectares, September Data Shows
New satellite data on Indonesia's wildfires was released on October 20. According to Nusantara Atlas, a deforestation and fire monitor, Indonesia's cumulative burned area stood at 895,650 hectares at the end of August but jumped to 1.92 million hectares (4.74 million acres) by the end of September, more than doubling in a single month and surpassing the 1.39 million hectares recorded at the same point in 2019, a year in which fires ultimately scorched 2.63 million hectares.
As of October 20, the Nusantara Atlas fire map had recorded about 1.15 million fire hotspots across Indonesia. The fires, which have raged for months, have caused air pollution and respiratory problems, and thick haze has spread into neighbouring Singapore, Malaysia and East Timor. Indonesia's Health Ministry earlier reported 277,075 cases of respiratory illness linked to the fires in seven provinces alone as of October 12.
Indonesia has been carrying out weather modification operations in Sumatra and Kalimantan, with cloud-seeding missions bringing rainfall and improved air quality in several fire hotspots. West Kalimantan has mounted the largest such operation, with 107 flights in the past four weeks, authorities said.
Presidential spokesperson Prasetyo Hadi explained the method in a statement: "We are using dry ice to disperse the smoke and allow sunlight to help trigger rain-cloud formation before conducting cloud-seeding operations with salt." Authorities said firefighting and weather modification efforts were continuing.
