Postfire erosion modeling results using the Water Erosion Prediction Project (WEPP) model for all large wildfires in California, 1984–2021

This is a shapefile containing polygons of watersheds that were burned in wildfires that occurred in California between 1984 and 2021. The Water Erosion Prediction Project (WEPP) model for postfire erosion was run on all watersheds for the first year following wildfire and the results of this modeling effort are included as attributes of each watershed polygon.
