Shrub Resiliency; Number of Disturbance Events Per 15 Year Intervals Since 1975

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 fire within a 15 year period) that could lead to vegetation-type conversion.

creation_method Counts were aggregated from the CalFire state fire perimeter dataset using a moving time window of 15 years, which has been identified as a minimum threshold for chaparral or coastal sage scrub recovery after fire. Areas with more frequent fires within a 15-year window could result in decreased chaparral or coastal sage scrub recovery and increased occurrence of invasive species. Counts of 0 indicate a site experienced a single fire but no repeat fires within the 15-yr moving window. Counts of 1 to 9 indicate the number of fires beyond the initial event that recurred at the same pixel within the 15-yr moving window. Data can be used to identify sites that are likely to experience vegetation-type conversion. Source: Conlisk, E., A.D. Syphard, E. Storey, K. West, C. Ross, M.K. Jennings, D. Stow. 2021.
