Burning Pixels: Where are you, fires?
http://burningpixels.blogspot.com/2009/06/where-are-you-fires.html
Monday, June 29, 2009. Where are you, fires? It's been quiet on the wildfire front. Historically, Arizona and New Mexico are the areas I map fires in first. They burn between May and July 4, when the monsoon season typically starts. Well, July 4 is this weekend and I've mapped. Last year at this time, Northern California was a-blazin'. Remember the June 20 storm? They had 1,200 fires burning at once. There are three nationwide right now. Luckily, I have plenty of other work to keep me busy. I'm a remote ...

Burning Pixels: Smoke is in the air
http://burningpixels.blogspot.com/2009/08/smoke-is-in-air.html
Monday, August 10, 2009. Smoke is in the air. Looks like fire season has finally heated up and I'm getting lots of requests. This won't be a banner year for acres mapped, but I'll end up mapping plenty of fires. The really big fires this year are in Alaska. I also got a request to map a fire in North Carolina called the Carolina Bay Fire. It burned about 2,000 acres right on the coast near the Havelock, NC. It's nice to map a fire somewhere besides the west, too! Posted by Jess and Jen. The mess in the s...

Burning Pixels: Going East Again
http://burningpixels.blogspot.com/2009/11/going-east-again.html
Saturday, November 21, 2009. I'm trying to decide whether to continue this blog or not. The problem is that I don't blog from work and that's when I typically have something to say about work! I am traveling (my seventh trip this year) to Savannah, GA, the week after Thanksgiving to attend the Assoc. of Fire Ecology conference. Folks, decided to teach a course on how to use MTBS data as one of these workshops. Posted by Jess and Jen. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). What is this blog? NASA EO Natural ...

Burning Pixels: On the road again
http://burningpixels.blogspot.com/2010/02/on-road-again.html
Tuesday, February 23, 2010. On the road again. One of the problems working so closely with USGS-EROS. Is that on occasion I have to make site visits to their facility. We have an annual MTBS. Meeting between the two centers and it's always in February. The problem is that we rotate locations, one year in SLC and the next at EROS. In Sioux Falls. It's cold in Sioux Falls in February! In my capacity at my current job, I've had to make visits to Sioux Falls (twice) and Duluth, MN, in February. Brrr. Many of...

Burning Pixels: Ho Hum
http://burningpixels.blogspot.com/2010/01/ho-hum.html
Sunday, January 31, 2010. It's been nice not having to map any active fires since October, 2009, when I was asked to map the Sheep Fire in California for the BAER team. After looking over my data for 2009, I noticed that I mapped my first fire (in CONUS) in March and my last in October. In reality, 2009 was "Driving Miss Daisy" when compared to 2006 - 2008's "Fast and Furious.". During the off season, I focus most my time on MTBS. Normalized Differenced Vegetation Index) for each image. This provided...

Burning Pixels: Out in the field!
http://burningpixels.blogspot.com/2009/09/out-in-field.html
Tuesday, September 01, 2009. Out in the field! I swear I've been busier in the last 4 weeks than I have been in two months. With a long, wet spring this year, the fire season has been compacted into August and now into September. Lots of fires lately and even some huge puppies: LaBrea. Last week I had the opportunity to leave the busy office and do some field work. I visited the 2008 Cold Springs Fire. Outside Trout Lake, WA. Our purpose was to collect CBI (composite burn index).

Burning Pixels: Big Pole Fire
http://burningpixels.blogspot.com/2009/08/big-pole-fire.html
Friday, August 21, 2009. Overall, the fire wasn't that severe. You can see that most the high severity corresponds with the north-facing, more densely vegetated slopes. This is pretty common. More fuel = hotter fire = longer residence time = higher soil burn severity. You can also see the 12,000-foot Deseret Peak in the back right of the picture. Posted by Jess and Jen.
