Description

The Great Basin Coordination Center partners with Bureau of Land Management field offices in the Intermountain West to monitor fine fuel loading to make firefighting resource allocation decisions in the early spring. Fine fuel loads, a measurement of the small, herbaceous, and flammable biomass in a system can vary greatly inter-annually in grass and shrub dominated systems. These data are a compilation of those measurements from 11 district offices spanning from 1996-2020 years over 164 sites and the methods used to collect those measurements, which varies between field offices.
