Forest fires : why the large year-to-year variation in forests burned?

Apt, Jay; Epple, Dennis N.; Sowell, Fallaw - 2023

Quantifying factors giving rise to temporal variation in forest fires is important for advancing scientific understanding and improving fire prevention. We demonstrate that eighty percent of the large year-to-year variation in forest area burned in California can be accounted for by variation in...
