Table 1 Substrate and vegetation burn severity (mean ± SE) one year following the 2018 Carr Fire by treatment, including untreated control (Control), hand thinned, masticated only (Mast), masticated and burned (Mast + Burn), and prescribed burn only (Burn Only) and vegetation type (chaparral or oak). Burn severity values ranged from unburned (1) to heavily burned (5). See Table 4 in Appendix 1 for detailed burn severity category information
