Box plots of six post-burn assessment metrics for the three analyzed groups: (1) non-UAS burning from 2013 to 2018, (2) non-UAS burning from 2019 to 2021, and (3) UAS burning from 2019 to 2021. Post-burn assessment data was collected on Cook’s Branch Conservancy in Montgomery County, TX, starting in 2013. It is important to note that more severe fire effects are represented by lower values for substrate and vegetation burn severities. Burning was analyzed on a per day basis. Sample sizes, median values, mean values, and significance test results between groups can be found in Table 1
