Abstract. We present the data recorded by eight institutions within the PYROPHOB project, running from 2020 to 2024 at two forest research sites in the south-west of Brandenburg, Germany. The aim of the project was to monitor abiotic and biotic parameters of forest regrowth under different management regimes on former wildfire sites in northeastern Germany. The observations comprised intermittent and continuous measurements or surveys on meteorological parameters (rainfall, temperature, vapour pressure deficit), soil (soil type and texture, soil chemistry and leaching, water content, soil temperature), deadwood, stand structure, vegetation regrowth, abundance of selected fauna (moths, beetles, mammals), UAV-based remote sensing, and photo monitoring. Thus, the multitude of collected data allows not only for detailed analyses of these observables separately, but also considering their interaction for a more multidisciplinary view on forest recovery after a wildfire. The data are available under the following DOIs: 10.23728/b2share.5821b57eae3b45619c2263205b1c9815 (Part 1, (Schmehl et al., 2025a)), under embargo until 2026-03-31 (Part 2, (Schmehl et al., 2025b)), 10.23728/b2share.d49631857d1345c48be9e36b62214e6d (Part 3.1, (Schmehl et al., 2025c)), and 10.23728/b2share.51bdf4b6dc854873b6ff44fdddbf4c3b (Part 3.2, (Schmehl et al., 2025d)).
