Climate, Wildfire, and Erosion Data, Western US.

Dataset Identification:

Resource Abstract:
description: These data were used to examine how post-fire sedimentation might change in western USA watersheds with future fire from the decade of 2001-10 through 2041-50. The data include previously published projections (Hawbaker and Zhu, 2012a, b) of areas burned by future wildfires for several climate change scenarios and general circulation models (GCMs) that we summarized for 471 watersheds of the western USA. The data also include previously published predictions (Miller et al., 2011) of first year post-fire hillslope soil erosion from GeoWEPP that we summarized for 471 watersheds of the western USA. We synthesized these summarized data in order to project sediment yield from future fires for 471 watersheds through the year 2050 at the hydrologic unit 8 (HUC8) scale. The detailed methods, results, and original data sources (i.e.: Hawbaker and Zhu, 2012a, b; Miller et al., 2011) were reported in the manuscript.; abstract: These data were used to examine how post-fire sedimentation might change in western USA watersheds with future fire from the decade of 2001-10 through 2041-50.
