Projections of post-fire cover of non-native short-lived grasses and forbs under current and future climate conditions
These data provide current and future projected post-fire invasion risk by non-native short-lived grasses and forbs based on vegetation cover data from 26,729 plots in the western United States that burned prior to being sampled. Projected post-fire invasion risk was calculated using random forests with gridded climate, soil, and topographic predictor variables following Prevéy et al. (2024). Projections cover the western United States west of -100 longitude over the current time period (1981-2010), mid-century (2041–2070) and the end of the century (2071–2100) under medium (SSP245) and high (SSP585) greenhouse gas emission scenarios for non-native C3 short-lived grasses and non-native short-lived forbs. Each raster file represents the projected post-fire invasion risk for each non-native functional group ('sl_grass' = short-lived C3 grass, 'sl_forb' = short-lived forb), then the time period (current = 1981-2010, mid = 2041-2071, and late = 2071-2100), and lastly, the emissions scenario (none for current, '245' for SSP245, and '585' for SSP585). For example, 'sl_grass_mid_245.tif' is a raster file showing projected post-fire invasion risk for non-native short-lived C3 grasses for mid-century (2041-2070) under the SSP245 emissions scenario.
