From: Abrupt, climate-induced increase in wildfires in British Columbia since the mid-2000s

Fig. 3: Spearman correlations between wildfire activity and environmental variables by season.

Spring (a) and summer (b) variables include climatic moisture deficit (CMD), average temperature (T), precipitation (Precip), number of frost-free days (NFFD), the date at which 2% of cumulative annual area burned is reached (AB2pct), annual suppression cost (Suppcost), area burned (AREA), and number of fires over 20 ha (COUNT). Significance (p < 0.05) of correlations is indicated by *.
