Spatial heterogeneity in the volume (a) and biomass (b) of wood that persisted through fire, the number of trees (c) and wood pieces (d) accumulating post-fire, and the total volume (e) and biomass (f) of large woody debris on the ground in 2019. Each dot represents one of the 640, 20 m × 20 m quadrats of the Yosemite Forest Dynamics Plot. Heterogeneity is represented by the interquartile range and 95% outer confidence limits represented by the box and whiskers; the median value is the solid line bisecting the box. Mean values reflect the 640 quadrat-level values—Table 1 and Fig. 6 reflect plot-level averages
