About 30 people were killed and more than 10,000 houses were destroyed in a high -speed, devastating fire that began in early January.
This new study has seen what is called fire conditions that can lead to dangerous conflicts.
It has been performed by a team of global weather attacks (WWA), a global group that publishes rapid analysis of climate -related weather events.
They use climate samples to imitate that the warming that has occurred in the middle of the 19th century is affecting heatwaves, droughts, floods and fires.
In the context of the industrial revolution, the mass burning of coal, oil and gas has shifted billions of tonnes of planets to the environment.
While acting like a blanket, these gases have increased the temperature by almost 1.2C since then.
Using climate models and statistical methods with real -world observations, the WWA group has been able to show how much the influence of the heat in the climate has had extreme events.
In the case of an LA fire, they found that the hot, dry conditions that drive them are expected to be once every 17 years.
This is an increase in the chances of about 35 % compared to the world that did not face warming.
“We really see that the models show the same results [real world] In observations, Dr. Frederick Otto, head of global weather attribution, said.
“So there, in this joint index, we have a lot of confidence about the consequences … we have a signal in fact that we can say that we can definitely blame it too.”
Researchers also reviewed other important variables that could lead to forest fire, including the length of the fire season.
By analyzing the weather observations, scientists found that after the heat of the world, it increased by about 23 days, which is around 1850.
The team says it means dry conditions and Santa Anna winds, which are important for the spread of fire, are rapidly over -leaping.
