Shovel Creek StoryMap: Burn Severity
AFSC's Zav Grabinski and EPSCoR Fire and Ice graduate student Chris Smith have released a StoryMap focused on burn severity using the 2019 Shovel Creek fire as a case study. The story map uses a combination of illustration, UAV videography, 360 plot photos, and animations to answer the questions:
