Table 1 Classifications given to combinations of fire type and season of burn to derive sequences of fire seasons. NUMSEAS are the integer classifications used in the final fire season sequences, and are derived from the FIRETYPE and ALLSEAS columns. Notation: PB = prescribed burn; WF = wildfire; SP = spring; AU = autumn; SU = summer; WI = winter; UN = unknown.
