This is the material that may burn at the extreme end of the spectrum and contribute to mass fire behavior (Stephens et al., 2022), especially during crown spread type events....

Large trees are important to forest managers as they have a greater likelihood of survival from fire, provide sources of seed stock, wildlife habitat, and contribute to other...

The principle method for maintaining or restoring resilience to the southern California landscape involves vegetation treatments. There are many variations on treatments...

The ember transport model used in WildEST tracks the travel of embers from each source pixel to downwind receiving pixels. The relative number of embers landing on a given...

Count of short return interval fires (within 15 years) across southern CA (1950-2019) that can be used to identify sites that have experienced frequent fire (e.g. more than one...

Identifying locations where shrubland vegetation will not recover naturally post-fire is a challenge given the vast areas that are regularly burned in southern California. When...

Total shrub cover as measured by the fractional non-overlapping absolute shrub cover, viewed vertically. Provides a first order measure of vegetation type when combined with...

The seral stages are categories that represent the developmental progression of forest ecosystems from initial establishment or following a stand replacing event (e.g., high...

Stand density index (SDI) helps vegetation managers to identify levels of site utilization and competition to determine management scenarios to meet objectives and is often used...

A quantitative continuous variable that reflects the risk of tree dieoff during a significant drought period (SPI48 drought = -2).

These data depict 10-meter raster riparian areas for 50-year flood heights for California in 2019.

This layer shows highly suitable habitats for the reproduction and feeding of Ringtail Cat ( Bassariscus astutus ) within the species' range.

These metrics represent the probability of low, moderate, or high severity fire, respectively, as constructed by Pyrologix LLC. Operational-control probability rasters indicate...

This data represents a wall-to-wall characterization of regional habitat connectivity potential in California for plant and animal species whose movement is inhibited by...

Runoff is a measure of the water available for storage. It is determined by both the water supply and the demand of the existing vegetation. Annual mean runoff measures the...
