An incredible effort, only made possibly by an incredible global network of fire scientists!

Our findings stress the need for sub-daily meteorological data in future climate model experiments (e.g., CMIP7) to ensure more accurate wildfire projections. Check out our preprint and data, and let us know your thoughts!

To help the community, we’ve provided two NetCDF datasets:
zenodo.org/records/1496...
• A mask identifying regions with infrequent fires at 1° resolution.
• A mask highlighting areas where trend biases occur using daily approximations.

Global Fire Danger Masks at 1° Resolution: Delineating Infrequent Fires and Trend Inconsistencies
This repository contains two complementary NetCDF datasets that support the analyses presented in our arXiv preprint:https://arxiv.org/abs/2503.01818 They provide global fire danger masks at a 1° spat...

We analyzed global Fire Weather Index (FWI) trends from 1980–2023 and found that using daily meteorological approximations inflates the number of extreme fire weather days. This can lead to an overestimation of wildfire danger in climate projections.
