Wild Basin Fire History from Tree Rings in Colorado

NOAA/WDS Paleoclimatology provides fire history data derived from tree rings for the Wild Basin area in Colorado, United States. The data covers a period from 200 to -49 calendar years before present (BP). This archived study is maintained by the NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information.

Use Cases

• Analyze fire return intervals using the fire history chronology from tree-ring parameters.
• Correlate fire events with climatic periods using the calendar years before present (BP) time series.
• Reconstruct historical fire regimes for the Colorado region based on the tree-ring proxy data.

Strengths

• Data covers a 249-year period (200 to -49 BP) for long-term analysis.
• Sourced from the authoritative NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI).

Limitations

• Data is temporally stale, last updated in 1999.
• Specific row count, column names, and sample data are unknown.
