abstract: "Real fire-season timing shift (regionally divergent, not global), two independent precipitation-intensification mechanisms (smoke-aerosol invigoration, warmer-SST moisture), and three independent flood-severity-amplification mechanisms (post-fire canopy loss, degraded river channels/floodplains, settlement-area sealing). A dedicated synthesis module makes explicit that the full combined cascade is not itself a single directly-studied finding, though every component link is real. Deliberately no UTAC/CREP/AFET bridge and no invented Gamma value -- see DISCLAIMER.md. GenesisAeon P121."
