Features of the dataset are described in more detail below.**   **Description of GlobalRx Dataset: 198,890 records of prescribed burns in 16 countries. In the information below, the name of the variable's column within the dataset is given in parentheses () in code font. For example, the column with the Drought Code data is titled DC. For each record, the following general information (derived from the original burn records sources) is included, where available: Latitude (Latitude) Longitude (Longitude) Year (Year) Month (Month)  Day (Day) Time* (Time) DOY (DOY) Country (Country) State/Province (State/Province) Agency/Organisation (Agency/Organisation) Burn Objective* (Burn Objective) Area Burned (Ha)* (Area Burned (Ha)) Data Repository (Data Repository) Citation (Citation) * Not available for every record For each record, the following meteorological information (derived from the ERA5 single levels reanalysis product) is also included: Daily total accumulated precipitation (PPT_tot) Daily minimum and mean relative humidity (RH_min, RH_mean)* Daily maximum 2-meter temperature (T_max) Daily maximum and mean 10-meter wind speed (Wind_max, Wind_mean) Daily minimum boundary layer height (BLH_min) C-Haines Index (CHI)* Vapor pressure deficit (VPD)* * Computed from other ERA5 meteorological variables. For each record, the following fire weather indices and components (derived from ERA5 fire weather reanalysis product) are also included: Canadian fire weather index (FWI) Fine fuel moisture code (FFMC) Drought moisture code (DMC) Drought code (DC) McArthur forest fire danger index (FFDI) Keetch-Byram drought index (KBDI) US burning index (USBI) For each record, the following environmental information (derived from various sources, see paper for more information) is also included: Ecoregion (Olson et al. 2001) (Ecoregion (Olson)) Biome (Olson et al. 2001) (Biome (Olson)) Koppen Climate (Beck et al. 2023) (Koppen Climate) Topography (Danielson and Gesch 2011) (Topography) Fuelbed Classification (GFD-FCCS) (Pettinari and Chuvieco 2016) (Fuelbed Classification (GFD-FCCS)) WDPA Name (WDPA 2024) (WDPA Name) WDPA Governance (WDPA 2024) (WDPA Governance) WDPA Ownership (WDPA 2024) (WDPA Ownership) WDPA Designation (WDPA 2024) (WDPA Designation) WDPA IUCN Category (WDPA 2024) (WDPA IUCN Category)
