From cosmic explosions to terrestrial fires? [PDF]
Journal of Geology, 127, 475-481 (2019), 2019 Multiple lines of evidence point to one or more moderately nearby supernovae, with the strongest signal ~2.6 Ma. We build on previous work to argue for the likelihood of cosmic ray ionization of the atmosphere and electron cascades leading to more frequent lightning, and therefore an increase in nitrate deposition and in wildfires. The potential exists
