Topological data analysis reveals parameters with prognostic skill for extreme wildfire size
A topological data analysis (TDA) of 200 000 U.S. wildfires larger than 5 acres indicates that events with the largest final burned areas are associated with systematically low fuel moistures, low precipitation, and high vapor pressure deficits in the 30 days prior to the fire start. These parameter...
