Mature size class distribution of three dominant tree species, comparing burned and unburned treatments, in Big Basin Redwoods State Park, Boulder Creek, California, USA. Data were collected in 2019 to determine the influence of burns conducted between 1999 and 2011 on vegetation, forest structure, and fuel load. Within nested ANOVA tests, significant differences were noted exclusively within NODE in the 10 to 24 cm and 25 to 49 cm size classes. Species abbreviations are defined as follows: SESE = Sequoia sempervirens, NODE = Notholithocarpus densiflorus, PSME = Pseudotsuga menziesii
