Loss of vegetation exposes soil to erosion; water runoff may increase and cause flooding; sediments may move downstream and damage houses or fill reservoirs putting endangered species and community water supplies at risk.\n\nAfter a fire the first priority is emergency stabilization in order to prevent further damage to life, property or natural resources. The stabilization work begins before the fire is out and may continue for up to a year. The longer-term rehabilitation effort to repair damage caused by the fire begins after the fire is out and continues for several years. Rehabilitation focuses on the lands unlikely to recover naturally from wildland fire damage.", "summary": "Cumulative soil burn areas in New Mexico from 2011 through 2014, when the Burned Area Emergency Response center stopped publishing new polygons.", "title": "burn_severity", "tags": [ "burn severity", "soil", "wildfire" ], "type": "Map Service", "typeKeywords": [ "ArcGIS", "ArcGIS Server", "Data", "Map Service", "Service" ], "thumbnail": "thumbnail/thumbnail.png", "url": "", "extent": [ [ -108.83527388, 32.808851851 ], [ -105.579677866, 36.0970689670001 ] ], "minScale": 0, "maxScale": 1.7976931348623157E308, "spatialReference": "WGS_1984_Web_Mercator_Auxiliary_Sphere", "accessInformation": "US Forest Service", "licenseInfo": "", "portalUrl": "" }
