Comparison of the four classes of percent soil organic matter cover (OMC) observed on the ground to Burned Area Emergency Response Soil Burn Severity (BAER-SBS) classes estimated via remote sensing. The width of each column indicates the proportion of the four soil OMC classes (indicated as brackets at the top), and color represents how burn severity was classified by the BAER-SBS assessment for the same area of the fire. Inset graph indicates how perfect agreement between percent OMC and BAER-SBS classes would present visually. Observations are for plots with a single forested condition where condition proportion exceeds 85% (n = 130)
