The results are shown as attributes for each polygon of wildfire perimeter. Some of the original MTBS data (name, ignition date, and ID) were preserved to allow for joining to other MTBS data. Results include WEPP modeling results of hillslope and channel erosion, a sum of postfire debris flow modeling results and field-based measurements, and a few derived results such as total sediment and total yield (mass per area).",

Distributions are detailed topographic and bathymetric maps, geolocated photographs, or sea-floor descriptions; Distributions includes maps that interpret observations to categorize areas on the basis of geoform types such as those in CMECS. Assessment types include evaluations of ecological or human use value and can include models that project environmental or economic effects of erosion, climate change, dredging, and other stressors. Predictions are the results of models or projections of future distributions, values, or ecological impacts of physical habitats, including predicted changes due to natural and human forces; they are also from scenario-based models of resource losses, gains, or impacts on ecological or economic values under different management strategies (for example, mining, removal, relocation, or the building of structures)."
