- Fire Regime Condition Class
Fire Regime Condition Class (FRCC) is an interagency, standardized tool for determining the degree of departure from reference condition vegetation, fuels and disturbance regimes. Assessing FRCC can help guide management objectives and set priorities for treatments. The Fire Regime Condition Class website is an interagency site designed to provide guidance and information to the user regarding the FRCC.
- Monitoring Trends in Burn Severity
The Wildland Fire Leadership Council (WFLC) has sponsored the Monitoring Trends in Burn Severity (MTBS) project to help meet monitoring information requirements contained within the National Fire Plan. MTBS will map and assess the burn severity for all large current and historical fires across the continental United States, Alaska, and Hawaii. MTBS data will provide the first consistent and comprehensive look at fire effects and associated trends spanning a 25 year period across the entire United States. A description of background, methods, schedule, and products along with annual National reports are available at the MTBS website.
