Assessing fuel structure in hurricane-impacted stands on the north shore of Prince Edward Island, Canada

Assessing fuel structure in hurricane-impacted stands on the north shore of Prince Edward Island, Canada is an open dataset from Natural Resources Canada with 1 file (ZIP); catalogue record updated 2026-08-28. On CanQuery you can follow the original downloads. Files are available in English and French.

We present a dataset of measurements and observations of combustible live and dead vegetation (also known as fuel structure) in ten stands impacted by hurricanes along the north shore of Prince Edward Island, Canada. We collected fuel structure data by applying the Next-Generation Fuels sampling protocol associated with the Next-Generation Canadian Forest Fire Danger Rating System. The main application for this database is to permit the comparison of fuel structure across the different stands. Additional applications include estimating potential fire behaviour under specific fire-weather conditions and informing local to national fuel type mapping when combined with remote sensing products.
