This project was supported, in part, by the Living Data Project, an initiative of the Canadian Institute of Ecology and Evolution (CIEE; https://www.ciee-icee.ca). Among other programs, the Living Data Project pairs graduate students with partner organizations to revive legacy datasets by digitizing, standardizing, analysing, and making these data available to the broader scientific community. The Canadian Forest Service provided legacy data from historic burns at Sharpsand Creek to Mannfred Boehm (University of British Columbia); he then wrote a series of scripts to automate the sorting of these data into a useful folder structure, with the aim of easing future analyses of these experimental burns. These scripts, and a subset of the sorted data, are housed on the Open Science Framework project: https://osf.io/2np87/ . The oldest data in the Sharpsand Creek data set is 50 years old. Some of the most significant data collected at this site is from prescribed wildfire-research burns. Data collected includes pre-burn forest inventories, fire behaviour data and post-fire analysis of regeneration, soils, and vegetation. Also on this research site, extensive data have been collected on duff moisture and in-stand weather. This project includes some of the fire research data that was collected and compiled over the years.
