Relati<strong>on</strong>ships between combusti<strong>on</strong> products and their spectral properties in fire-affected shrublands 119<br />

ed values with the three dataset (R, FDS and BD). C<strong>on</strong>sidering the results<br />

attained in the FDS dataset we can state that vegetati<strong>on</strong>, charcoal and ash<br />

can be adequately estimate from spectral data. As these products are representative<br />

of different fire severity levels, we can c<strong>on</strong>clude that from FDS<br />

we are able to improve the evaluati<strong>on</strong> of this variable.<br />
