Figure 5. Statistical distributions for the total area burnt (A, B, C, D) and the percentage of area burnt by large fires (E, F, G, H) obtained after 100 simulations of the MEDFIRE model for the 2000–2010 period.

Figure 5

Results are presented for the whole study area (ALL: plots A and E) and for the three bioclimatic sub-regions: North-East (NE: plots B and F), North-West (NW: plots C and G) and South-Central (SC: plots D and H). Scenarios without suppression are represented in white box-plots, opportunistic suppression scenarios in light grey, active suppression scenarios in medium grey and combined suppression scenarios in dark grey. Black horizontal lines indicate the observed values of total area burnt (A to D) or the percentage of area burnt by large fires (E to H) as reported in official statistics. Lower and upper whiskers indicate the 5% and 95% quartiles, lower and upper hinges indicate the first and third quartile and the central black line indicates the median value.
