Unburned and burned forest stand characteristics 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. The unburned image (A) is from the North Escape Road site (NERU), and the burned image (B) was from the 2011 Johansen Road East project (JREB). Images depict similar density and diameter distributions of Sequoia sempervirens and higher density of Notholithocarpos densiflorus in unburned sites. Photo credit: David Cowman, 2018
