Landsat image analysis over the past 20+ years showed that consistent increases in the satellite normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) during relatively dry years were confined to large wildfire areas that burned in the late 1980s and 1990s

Title:  Vegetation Cover Change in Yosemite National Park (California) Detected using 
Landsat Satellite Image Analysis 
 
Abstract: Landsat image analysis over the past 20+ years showed that consistent increases 
in the satellite normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) during relatively dry years 
were confined to large wildfire areas that burned in the late 1980s and 1990s.
