George Washington Carver National Memorial FFI Fire Effects Monitoring Data

Fire effects monitoring data collected at George Washington Carver National Monument in Diamond, MO. The data were collected during spring, summer, and fall field seasons by the fire effects monitoring crew out of Wilson's Creek National Battlefield from 2010- 2016. The GWCA FFI database primarily contains fuels monitoring and fire severity data. Data refer exclusively to grassland monitoring plots. Data were collected from 50 x 20 m plots. Grassland protocols focus on the two 50 m transects per plot. The published protocol can be found on the HTLN website (Leis et. al. 2011) http://science.nature.nps.gov/im/units/htln/library/Vegetation/PlantComm/PlantCom_2009_p.pdf. Includes Disturbance Assissment data from long-term vegetation monitoring.
