Wildfire Radiative Power, Detection Confidence, Mean and Maximum Brightness band, derived from Cumulative MODIS fire detection, Louisiana 2003-2011.

These data are used to represent the spatial, temporal and thermal characteristics of wildfires in southeast Louisiana beginning in 2003 and extending until 2011. The fire detection points are placed at the centroids of the 1km*1km MODIS grid cells and contain the date collected as well as the derived Fire Radiative Potential which was used to represent intensity. Graphs of normalized and non-normalized wildfire detection frequency were created to examine the temporal trends associated with wildfires in both the marine wetland environment as well southeast Louisiana in general. These temporal trends were useful in identifying periods of peak wildfire activity as well as defining a fire season or seasons to be used in both in statistical analysis of wildfire intensity as well as the kernel density maps. This data was also created in support of a GoMRI Year One grant and is also registered with GRIIDC as dataset Y1.x103.000:0002.

本数据集用于呈现2003年至2011年路易斯安那州东南部野火的空间、时间与热特征。火灾探测点布设于1km×1km的中分辨率成像光谱仪(Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer，MODIS)网格单元的质心位置，包含采集日期以及用于表征火灾强度的衍生参数——火灾辐射势(Fire Radiative Potential)。研究人员构建了归一化与未归一化野火探测频率统计图，以分析海洋湿地环境及路易斯安那州全域范围内野火相关的时间变化趋势。此类时间变化趋势可用于识别野火活动的峰值时段，并明确可应用于野火强度统计分析与核密度图(Kernel Density Map)制作的火灾季（或多季）。本数据集的编制亦为支持GoMRI第一年度资助项目，并已以数据集编号Y1.x103.000:0002在GRIIDC完成注册。
