Modelling Variable Fire Severity in Boreal Forests: Effects of Fire Intensity and Stand Structure

Fire severity empirical distribution function.
Empirical distribution function of simulated fire severity, measured as percent reduction in patch basal area, within patches of jack pine and black spruce. Fire severity classes of [54], are delimited by the vertical lines: low severity (<25%), moderate severity (25–75%), and fire severity (>75%).
