(a) Perimeter of the 2018 Woolsey Fire in Los Angeles and Ventura counties overlaid on prior fire history, which shows that almost none of this landscape has escaped burning. Also, records indicate that over two thirds of this landscape has burned at least twice and some areas 10 or more times. (b) Perimeter of 2017 Thomas Fire in Ventura and Santa Barbara counties overlaid on prior fire history. Inset illustrates location in California, USA. CA = California, thru = through, RX = prescribed, and YearNum = calendar year. Based on the data from California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection’s Fire and Resource Assessment Program and National Park Service records (https://www.nps.gov/samo/learn/management/loader.cfm?csModule=security/getfile&pageID=624273)
