Everett Fire History from Entiat Mud Creek Tree Rings

294 to -44 calendar years BP of fire history data derived from tree ring analysis in Washington state. The dataset contains parameters related to fire events and is archived by NOAA's World Data Service for Paleoclimatology. This study was published by NOAA NCEI.

Use Cases

• Reconstructing fire event years from tree-ring fire scar data.
• Analyzing the frequency of fire events over a 338-year period.
• Correlating fire history parameters with regional paleoclimate proxies.

Strengths

• Covers a specific 338-year period from 294 to -44 BP.
• Archived by the authoritative NOAA World Data Service for Paleoclimatology.

Limitations

• Temporal coverage ends at -44 BP, with no modern data.
• Geographic scope is limited to a single aspect polygon in Washington.
• Data last updated in 1994, potentially lacking recent methodological revisions.
