This data publication contains both the pre- and post-burn clip plot locations for the 2008, 2011, and 2012 Prescribed Fire Combustion and Atmospheric Dynamics Research Experiment (RxCADRE) fuels and ground cover fraction data (both of which are available in a separate data publication). These plots are located at the Eglin Air Force Base, northeast of Valparaiso, Florida in Okaloosa County and the Joseph Jones Ecological Research Center at Ichauway, near Camila, Georgia. The Prescribed Fire Combustion and Atmospheric Dynamics Research Experiment (RxCADRE) was designed to collect atmospheric, fuels, fire behavior, energy balance, emissions, and fire effects data to evaluate and advance fire models and further our understanding of fire science questions. The pre- and post-burn fuels data, and the ground cover fraction data collected at a subset of these plots, represent the raw data measures that were subsequently aggregated to the sample unit level for comparisons to other RxCADRE measurements, for purposes of model calibration and/or validation. A short summary of the RxCADRE project can be found in the full data publication download (\Supplements\RxCADRE_Project_Overview.pdf). Information about the RxCADRE project can also be found here: //www.fs.fed.us/pnw/fera/research/rxcadre/.
