About this Dataset

Sierra Nevada Landbirds Fire Analysis Monitoring Data Package, 1999-2019

This dataset represents inputs for a hierarchical Bayesian model of bird population density with respect to fire history in Yosemite National Park (YOSE) and Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks (SEKI). The model uses avian point-count data, fire history data and biophysical metrics to assess localized bird population response to years-since-fire and burn severity at thousands of locations across these parks (Ray et al. 2025). Avian point-count time series were generated by The Institute for Bird Populations in collaboration with the Sierra Nevada Inventory and Monitoring Network (SIEN) of the U.S. National Park Service (Siegel & DeSante 2002, Siegel & Wilkerson 2005, Siegel et al. 2010). Fire dates and boundaries were provided by SIEN staff. Biophysical data were accessed from on-line repositories (LANDFIRE and LEMMA GNN). For more information, please refer to Ray et al. 2025.
