Coast Redwoods grow in a band from the coast of central California to southern Oregon (thus these data are only in the Northern and Central California Regions). Compared to...

This layer represents an estimation of the probability that drought will substantially impact post-fire shrub recovery, potentially leading to vegetation type conversion to...

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...

This ember load dataset represents the ember load index (ELI) per pixel, for a given pixel, based on surface and canopy fuel characteristics, climate, and topography within the...

These rasters depict the predicted human- and lightning-caused ignition probability for the state of California. Ignition is regulated by complex interactions among climate,...

A key component of forest structure descriptions is the spatial heterogeneity (i.e., tree clumps and gaps), which influences vegetation growth, competition, and succession,...

This percent canopy cover is intended to be used in combination with the fractal dimension index as a measure of fine-scale heterogeneity.

This linkage network is designed to allow for local movements among individual preserves while supporting landscape-scale regional connectivity.Habitat connectivity is the most...

The population of giant sequoia ( Sequoiadendron giganteum [SEGI]) trees is an irreplaceable heritage to be studied, protected, and preserved as it faces increased threats from...

Tree mortality and other forest damage is detected by annual aerial surveys over forested lands by state and federal agency staff. The primary purpose of the aerial survey is to...

Large trees in this metric were calculated as the sum of branch and stemwood plus foliage for trees over 20 inches in diameter. This is intended to represent the most stable...

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...

This metric represents cost of potential treatments for the Northern California region and is dependent on predefined treatments or silvicultural prescriptions, which are best...

This is an index of how much less smoke (as defined by PM2.5 emissions) would be produced from a given pixel by burning under moderate fire weather conditions rather than the...

This metric is an index of the potential smoke production (represented by particulate matter that is 2.5 microns or less in diameter, or PM2.5) that could be emitted for a given...

This metric expresses the total amount of existing biomass volume (measured in dry weight tons per acre) from all live tree crowns (branchwood and foliage) and the tree stems...

Large trees are important to forest managers for multiple reasons: they have a greater likelihood of survival from fire; they are an important source of seed stock; they provide...

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....
