Region months
Burning activity calendar
Each cell is one month. The color is how that month compares with the same month in other years, not how large the number is on its own. A dark ember September means an unusually active September for this region.

The five colors are fixed bins, so the same color means the same kind of departure in every region. Switching the number between harmonized, MODIS, and VIIRS does not recolor the cell. That toggle is there to show the seam: the two sensors do not count fires the same way, and VIIRS is empty before April 2018.
