Dataset about recent wildfire statistics for the Netherlands, 2017-2022Stoof, C.R., Kok, E., Cardil Forradellas, A., M. van Marle. In temperate Europe, fire is already here: The case of The Netherlands. Ambio (2024). https://doi.org/10.1007/s13280-023-01960-yThis dataset contains:1) Data for Figure 1: Historic patterns of a) annual fire occurrence and b) annual area burned (1945-1993) and c) distribution of fire size (1978-1993) in The Netherlands.
