Spatial Controls of Historical Fire Regimes: A Multiscale Example from the Interior West, USA

Our objective was to infer the controls of spatial variation in historical fire regimes. We reconstructed a multicentury history of fire frequency, size, season, and severity from fire scars and establishment dates of 1426 trees sampled on grids in four watersheds (∼64 plots, over ∼1620 ha each) rep...
