RxCADRE 2008, 2011, and 2012: Burn blocks
This data publication contains three vector shapefiles of the burn blocks for the 2008, 2011, and 2012 Prescribed Fire Combustion and Atmospheric Dynamics Research Experiment (RxCADRE). These plots are located at Eglin Air Force Base, northeast of Valparaiso, Florida and at the Joseph Jones Ecological Research Center at Ichauway, near Camila, Georgia. These burn blocks represent the spatial extent of the various RxCADRE burns, although one burn block, 608A, was burned both in 2008 and 2011.<br>The RxCADRE project was developed as a response to a lack of integrated, quality-assured fuels, atmospheric, fire behavior, energy, smoke and effects data, a problem which hinders scientists ability to evaluate fire models and tackle fundamental fire science questions. The goal of the project was to allowing leading fire scientists to come together and collect fire data on the same prescribed burns and to create quality fire and fuels data that can be shared between scientists and placed in a public database so it can be accessed by anyone. <br>A short summary of the RxCADRE project can be found in the full data publication download (\Supplements\RxCADRE_Project_Overview.pdf).
