M<strong>on</strong>itoring post-fire vegetati<strong>on</strong> regenerati<strong>on</strong> of the 2003 burned areas in Portugal using a time-series of MODIS enhanced vegetati<strong>on</strong> index 251<br />

4 - To do next<br />

After this previous analysis of the data we intent to de-seas<strong>on</strong>alise the data<br />

using empirical mode decompositi<strong>on</strong> (), an approach which does not rely<br />

<strong>on</strong> stati<strong>on</strong>ary assumpti<strong>on</strong>s. Then, using Spatial data <strong>on</strong> land cover, topography,<br />

previous-fire history, soil maps and climate data, we want to adjust<br />

a model to the trend tendency of vegetati<strong>on</strong> recovery functi<strong>on</strong> of these<br />

variables.<br />
