Fig. 3: Maps of projected change in RxDays across the WUS, 2021–2060 vs. 1981–2020.
From: Climate change is narrowing and shifting prescribed fire windows in western United States
Maps depicting the projected change in the number of RxDays across the western United States (WUS) on an annual (a) and seasonal (b–e) basis. The change in projected RxDays is calculated as the difference between the RxDay counts during 2021–2060 vs. 1981–2020 on a “moderate warming” (RCP4.5) trajectory using meteorological data from the downscaled CMIP5 climate model ensemble dataset (MACA).
