Short summary
Forest fire risk is expected to increase as fire weather and drought conditions intensify. To improve quantification of the intensity and extent of forest fire damage, we have developed a global forest burn severity (GFBS) database that provides burn severity spectral indices (dNBR and RdNBR) at a 30 m spatial resolution. This database could be more reliable than prior sources of information for future studies of forest burn severity on the global scale in a computationally cost-effective way.
