洛杉矶的野火、杀害24人和摧毁超过12,000个建筑,凸显出作为关键而扩散的火焰。 Los Angeles wildfires, killing 24 and destroying over 12,000 structures, highlight ember spread as key.

洛杉矶的野火至少造成24人死亡,12 000多座建筑物被毁,表明大多数房屋被毁是由于空气中喷雾而不是直接燃烧造成的。 Los Angeles wildfires, which have killed at least 24 and destroyed over 12,000 structures, show that most home destruction is due to airborne embers rather than direct flames. 余烬或火烬是燃烧的碎片，从微小的斑点到较大的块状物，由强风携带，将火势蔓延到未燃烧的区域。 Embers, or firebrands, are burning debris ranging from tiny specks to larger chunks, carried by strong winds that spread fire to unburned areas. 研究人员正在研究这些喷雾,以便更好地预测野火的蔓延,并制定家庭保护措施。 Researchers are studying these embers to better predict wildfire spread and develop home protection measures.
