From: Ecological and Sampling Constraints on Defining Landscape Fire Severity
 | Factors Relevant to Modeling Fire Severity | |
---|---|---|
Conditions | General Factors | Fire Specific |
Spatial | resolution | aggregation of effects |
 | autocorrelation | patch size, contagion |
Temporal | site phenology | fire completion |
 | moisture content | time since fire |
 | sun angle, snow | fire seasonality |
 | sampling interval |  |
Radiometric | transmittance | smoke |
 | available bandwidths | range of burn variation |
 | reflectance | specific bandwidth response |
Geographic | geo-registration | ecotype properties |
 | topography | elevation gradients |
