Arctic Boreal Annual Burned Area, Circumpolar Boreal Forest and Tundra, V2, 2002-2022
This dataset provides annual cumulative end-of-season burned area in circumpolar boreal forests and tundra for the years 2002-2022. The data were generated using the Arctic Boreal Burned Area (ABBA) version 2 algorithm with MODIS collection 6 products. The algorithm is based on Normalized Burned Ratio differencing (dNBR) and is designed specifically to capture late season fires. The annual MODIS Vegetation Continuous Fields (VCF) 250-m Collection 5.1 (MOD44B) product allowed for additional vegetation-dependent dNBR thresholds within the algorithm's processing steps. The spatial domain is circumpolar regions above 50 degrees north latitude. The data are provided in cloud-optimized GeoTIFF format with 463-m resolution.
