Table 8 Count of models for different qualitative ratings of data quality and model performance, from this study of post-fire tree mortality models from the USA, from fires occurring from 1981 to 2016. R-A = Ryan and Amman model, which can be applied to many species; SS = species-specific pre-fire and post-fire models. See Table 7 for rating criteria
