GEOSPHERE - ATMOSPHERE • Ash particles in the air carried by the wind and dropped on the ground miles away from the forest fires; the ash particles--which have a high p. H—can change the p. H of the soil

HYDROSPHERE - ATMOSPHERE • More rain in neighboring areas because ash particles in the air may have become condensation centers that allow raindrops to form • Very dry, windy air can draw moisture out of the living grasses and trees through evaporation
