“…Understanding the factors important to post‐fire tree mortality requires large amounts of data across multiple fires. We analyzed data from the Fire and Tree Mortality (FTM) Database (Cansler, Hood, Varner, van Mantgem, Agne, Andrus, Ayres, Ayres, Bakker, Battaglia, et al, 2020; Cansler, Hood, Varner, van Mantgem, Agne, Andrus, Ayres, Ayres, Bakker, Battaglia, Bentz, et al, 2020), a collection of 164,293 individual tree records including measures of fire injury, tree diameter, and status (live/dead). The data include 142 species from 409 fires spanning 11 western US states from 1981 to 2016 (Cansler, Hood, Varner, van Mantgem, Agne, Andrus, Ayres, Ayres, Bakker, Battaglia, et al, 2020; Cansler, Hood, Varner, van Mantgem, Agne, Andrus, Ayres, Ayres, Bakker, Battaglia, Bentz, et al, 2020, Figure 1).…”
