Fig. 6

Regional January–February temperature anomalies (in °C) and November–December precipitation anomalies (in percent of mean) for 3 years before and 2 years after the fire (year 0). Deviations on the left correspond to the 6 years with the largest area burned, while those on the right correspond to the 6 years with the smallest area burned in the interval 1984–2023. The bars with asterisks indicate significant differences (p < 0.05) from the means obtained in 1000 Monte Carlo simulations based on the same number of years as the events (Mooney and Duval 1993). The dashed lines correspond to the 95% confidence interval
