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

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

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 decis...
