There’s probably some dependence between fires in subsequent years, right? If an area burns one year, I would assume it’s less likely to burn the next year. Could that explain the drop from 2018 to 2019?
I think there’s so much forested area that probably doesn’t explain it, also two years is probably not that much for growing back? 33 million acres of forrest in CA according to Google. So those fires burnt a lot, but also left > 90%?
