California has experienced a significant increase in the extent of forest fires in recent decades, with a fivefold increase in annual burned area from 1972 to 2018. Nearly all the increase in summer forest-fire area from 1972 to 2018 was due to increased VPD.

2018 ( PDF ; I’m a coauthor on that paper). If the AMOC weakens, this region will cool. And in fact it is cooling – it’s the only region on Earth which has cooled since preindustrial times. That’s easy to check: if that were the case, then cooling in the area would be linked to increased heat loss at the surface.
