Purpose

The purpose of this dataset is to quantify and compare the effects of wildfire and prescribed fire on stream and riparian ecosystems under different fire management practices: (1) prescribed fire, (2) wildfire after prescribed fire, (3) wildfire in untreated, fire-suppressed forests, and (4) wildfire in wilderness forests with a history of minimal fire suppression allowing for a fairly natural fire regime.
