Landsat
satellite images at each site were used to assess fire disturbance,
post-fire vegetation recovery and climate sensitivity analysis. The
Landsat-5 Thematic Mapper (TM) sensor (from 1987 to 2011) and
Landsat-7 Enhanced Thematic Mapper Plus (ETM+) sensor (from 1999 to 2017),
deriving the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) (every 16 days
at 30 m spatial resolution), were used. In the Excel files, monthly
maximum of Landsat-derived NDVI at each study site was provided. In
addition, we provide monthly average air temperature (tavg)
and precipitation (ppt) data time series of each site in the Excel
files, which were extracted from a gridded climate product
(TerraClimate).
