From: Wildfire probability estimated from recent climate and fine fuels across the big sagebrush region
a The number of years in which each pixel burned from 1988 to 2019 (USGS combined wildland fire dataset). The corresponding observed annual fire probability calculated from those fire frequencies is also shown in the legend. b The mean annual wildfire probability predicted by our model, based on vegetation and climate conditions. These values represent the mean probability (%) of fire occurring in a given year, and the corresponding fire return intervals (FRI) are also shown in the legend. The Histogram inset shows the distribution of values shown on the map (x-axis limits were restricted, 0.9% of data not shown). To more directly compare the average observed and modeled wildfire probability, see Figs. 4 and 5
