Figure 7.1-a

Interactive maps of baseline and projected fire likelihood in Canada, presented in terms of fire return interval (years), for a low greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions scenario (RCP2.6). Shorter fire return intervals (in brown and light brown) represent a higher fire likelihood, and longer cycles (in yellow, light green and dark green) represent a low fire likelihood. The maps show local fire likelihood (pixels represent a 250 m2 resolution) using the homogeneous fire regime zones of Boulanger et al. (2014) and display fire selectivity based on vegetation composition and stand age at the pixel level.
