Table 2 Fire season length represented by the number of days per year (days year−1) with LFMC and DFMC values below wildfire occurrence thresholds (minimum: 120–12% | critical: 100–10% | extreme: 80–8% for LFMC-DFMC, respectively) under scenarios RCP4.5 and RCP8.5. Values for the extreme LFMC threshold of 80% were not represented as the fitted model does not meet normality assumptions
