Field Validation Data for Live Tree Presence/Absence Following Two Large Wildfires in California, USA
March 6, 2025
This data file contains observations recorded during field surveys of post-fire vegetation in the 2021 Caldor and 2022 Mosquito Fires in the Sierra Nevada of California. The surveys were performed in summer 2023. All tree species were surveyed and treated the same.

Estimating basal area change by tree size with Sentinel-2 imagery following four fires in California, USA Estimating basal area change by tree size with Sentinel-2 imagery following four fires in California, USA
Background Failure to account for tree size when estimating burn severity may not accurately capture post-fire tree mortality and post-fire forest structure. Aims We explored whether basal area mortality by tree size class could be determined from remotely-sensed burn severity indices based solely on Sentinel-2 satellite imagery. Methods We used data collected in four large California...
