To Do

Not Done:

  • remove larimer from data set *done in plots, not in data set**
  • Why is 2024 missing for fatalities?
  • DURATION
    • Forest plot or similar chart Y axis is calendar months, x axis is year, faceted by region or state. Showing first and last states or actually density plot?
  • Spaghetti plot by state with percentage of residents affected by fires (Lauren to provide)
  • WUI Figures:
    • Map of distance from wuis for whole US (Binned)
    • plots showing how many fires fall in each bin over time
  • Add USFS region to data set (Separate out Hawaii from California. Rename Northern -> Northern Rockies) done in plots, not in data set

Done:

  • Correlation plot of each of these variables (by region???) for ONLY community affected area
  • Add acreage, WUI, as plots
  • Show plots WITH non-community intersecting fires DONE
  • Label major fires in fatalities plot, structures plot DONE
  • Put community intersect side by side with overall
  • Align axis ticks with years better
  • Add share of total events that affect WUI
