Fuel Moisture Content Data from the 2024 Department of Defense Wildland Fire Science Initiative Fort Stewart Campaign

To measure fuel moisture content, vegetation was collected at adjacent burn units with similar land cover, species composition, and time since the last prescribed burn to E16 and E11.5. This dataset provides fuel moisture content data by fuel type, collected in February 2024. This dataset is part of the Wildland Fire Science Initiative (WFSI) research burn campaign held at Fort Stewart from February 8th 2024 to February 10th 2024. In addition, pre- and post-fire data collection occurred before and after these dates. See the most recent version of the contextual dataset “Fort Stewart 2024: Contextual data for Wildland Fire Science Initiative (WFSI) Research Burn Campaign” for more information about the campaign (see Annotations section for has Metadata link).
