Forest classifications for pre-El Niño forest disturbance classes and the plot samples in 2010, 2014–2015 and 2017. The 2015–2016 sample occurred after extensive wildfires and is a subset of the 2014–2015 sample.

pre-El Niño forest class	definition	necromass assessment (2010)	monitoring of CWD (2014–2015)	burned in 2015–2016 and sampled in 2017	additionally burned area sampling (2017)
undisturbed primary forest	primary forest with no evidence of human disturbance, such as fire scars or logging stumps	17	5	2	3
logged primary forest	primary forest with evidence of logging, such as logging stumps	26	5	4	1
burned primary forest	primary forest with evidence of recent fire, such as fire scars	7	0	0	0
logged-and-burned primary forest	primary forest with evidence of both logging and fire	24	4	1	4
secondary forest	forest regenerating after complete removal of native vegetation	33	4	0	1
