The fire occurrence numbers are from the Wildfire Atlas of China (WFAC) and the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) data, including MOD14A1 provided by Terra and MYD14A1 provided by Aqua4. a Total fire occurrences from MODIS, b crop fire occurrences from MODIS, c the ratio between total fire occurrences from MODIS and WFAC, and d the ratio between non-crop fire occurrences from MODIS and the WFAC. The fire occurrences were aggregated via combining the spatiotemporal adjacent fire points from MODIS Terra and Aqua from 2005 to 2018 into one fire event. Crop fire was picked out based on the land cover data of China in 201811. The The 2 × 2 degree fire data is a sum of the fire occurrences.
