  • Wildfire burn severity and emissions inventory

    Open AccessQingqing Xu, A L Westerling et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2022

    Wildfire severity is a key indicator of both direct ecosystem impacts and indirect emissions impacts that affect air quality, climate, and public health far beyond the spatial footprint of the flames. Comprehensive, accurate inventories of severity and emissions are essential for assessing these impacts and setting appropriate fire management and health care preparedness strategies, as is the ability to project emissions for future wildfires. The…

  • Simulating burn severity maps at 30 meters in two forested regions in California

    Open AccessJonathan A Sam, Wayne J Baldwin et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2022

    Climate change is altering wildfire and vegetation regimes in California’s forested ecosystems. Present day fires are seeing an increase in high burn severity area and high severity patch size. The ability to predict future burn severity patterns could better support policy and land management decisions. Here we demonstrate a methodology to first, statistically estimate individual burn severity classes at 30 meters and second, cluster and smooth …
