This presentation examines how atmospheric rivers (ARs) influence extreme climate conditions and wildfire activity in Brazil and North America. ARs can both alleviate drought and trigger floods, while large-scale climate patterns (e.g., ENSO, SACZ, PNA and NAO) shape fire risk by intensifying heatwaves and drying soils. Using climate models, remote sensing, and statistical
