Everett Fire History Reconstruction From Tree Rings In Entiat Mud Creek

284 to -44 calendar years before present (BP) of fire history data derived from tree-ring analysis in Washington, USA. The dataset captures parameters related to fire events and is archived by the NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) World Data Service for Paleoclimatology. This archived study was last updated in 1994.

Use Cases

• Reconstruct fire event dates and frequency using the tree-ring chronology spanning 328 years.
• Analyze the relationship between fire history parameters and climatic shifts over the recorded time period.
• Calibrate regional fire history models with site-specific data from the Entiat Mud Creek location.

Strengths

• Temporal coverage spans 328 calendar years (284 to -44 BP).
• Data is curated and archived by the authoritative NOAA NCEI World Data Service for Paleoclimatology.

Limitations

• Data is temporally stale, with a last update recorded in 1994.
• The specific sample size (row count) and measurement parameters are not provided in the description.
• Geographic coverage is limited to a single polygon (Aspect Polygon 205) in Washington State.
