This dataset records mortality-- including involvement of bark beetles-- and burn severity information for trees in long term forest dynamics plots in Sequoia National Park and Yosemite National Park that experienced fire. These data support the following publication: Furniss, T.J., Das, A.J., van Mantgem, P.J., Stephenson, N.L. and Lutz, J.A., 2021. Crowding, climate, and the case for social distancing among trees. Ecological Applications, p.e2507, https://doi.org/10.1002/eap.2507

This dataset was developed using the STATSGO2, 1:250,000-scale US soils database with soil descriptions from the NRCS website (http://ortho.ftw.nrcs.usda.gov/cgi-bin/osd/osdname.cgi). The main soil characteristics described by this dataset are soil order, texture, climate regime and caliche (special diagnostic horizon).
These data describe tree mortality and the factors associated with tree mortality for a variety of plots in Sequoia National Park. Most of the data were collected between 2014 and 2017 (during an extremely severe drought), along with some comparison data from 2004 to 2007. These data support the following publication: Stephenson, N.L., Das, A.J., Ampersee, N.J., Bulaon, B.M., and Yee, J.L., In review. Which trees die during drought? The key role of insect host-tree selection, Journal of Ecology

The sample area theissen polygons were created by intersecting the susceptibility risk, by category, with a systematic sampling point grid. To attain higher levels of certainty in the higher risk categories, sample areas are intensified where risk of susceptibility is highest.
