Data and R code from: Afforestation reduces fire occurrence in Colombia’s tropical savannas

Résumé fourni par la source

These R scripts and dataset support the article “Afforestation reduces fire occurrence in Colombia’s tropical savannas,” which investigates the effects of commercial forest plantations on fire dynamics in the tropical savannas of Vichada, Colombia. The study area is located in the Orinoquia region and spans various land cover types, including native grasslands, mixed-use agro-pastoral mosaics, and commercial plantations of Acacia mangium, Eucalyptus pellita, and Pinus caribaea. The dataset contains: 1) coordinates of 96 spatially independent sampling points, stratified by land‑cover type (44 plantation sites, 52 grassland sites); 2) csv tables with buffer‑based summaries of land cover, burned area, climate, and distances to infrastructure; 3) R scripts for spatial sampling, data preprocessing, buffer‑based extraction, model fitting, diagnostics, and plotting; and 4) point GIS layers (GeoPackage format) for plantation and grassland sampling sites, compatible with standard GIS software. ​No human subjects are included in these data.
