Parts of Australia most affected by bushfires

 The map below shows the different levels of fire intensity in different areas of Australia: 

  • Most bushfires occur during the fire season. In the Northern Territory the fire season is in winter and spring but southern regions have their fire seasons in summer and autumn
    •  
  • The most severe bushfires happen between Adelaide and Sydney
    •  
  • It is usually areas that are very dry and have dense undergrowth that are most vulnerable to bushfires 
  • Dry winds provide ventilation for flame, helps push them forward and provides oxygen
    •  
  • Eucalyptus trees are one of the most flammable trees because their leaves contain flammable oil
