Fire severity is one potential factor that could explain subsequent coastal dune destabilisations, but contemporary evidence of destabilisation following fire is lacking. In addition, the suitability of conventional satellite Earth Observation methods to detect the impacts of fire and the relative fire severity in coastal dune environments is in question. Widely applied satellite-derived burn indices (Normalised Burn Index and Normalised Difference Vegetation Index) have been suggested to underestimate the effects of fire in heterogenous landscapes or areas with sparse vegetation cover. This work assesses burn severity from high resolution aerial and Sentinel 2 satellite imagery following the 2019\/2020 Black Summer fires on Kangaroo Island in South Australia, to assess the efficacy of commonly used satellite indices, and validate a new method for assessing fire severity in coastal dune systems. The results presented here show that the widely applied burn indices derived from NBR differentially assess vegetation loss and fire severity when compared in discrete soil groups across a landscape that experienced a very high severity fire. A new application of the Tasselled Cap Transformation (TCT) and Disturbance Index (DI) is presented. The differenced Disturbance Index (dDI) improves the estimation of burn severity, relative vegetation loss, and minimises the effects of differing soil conditions in the highly heterogenous landscape of Kangaroo Island. Results suggest that this new application of TCT is better suited to diverse environments like Mediterranean and semi-arid coastal regions than existing indices and can be used to better assess the effects of fire and potential remobilisation of coastal dune systems.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs13234739","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,12,1]],"date-time":"2021-12-01T01:45:02Z","timestamp":1638323102000},"page":"4739","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["A New Application of the Disturbance Index for Fire Severity in Coastal Dunes"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1331-0679","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Marcio D.","family":"DaSilva","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Beach and Dune Systems (BEADS) Laboratory, College of Science and Engineering, Flinders University, Bedford Park, SA 5042, Australia"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8316-0901","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"David","family":"Bruce","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Beach and Dune Systems (BEADS) Laboratory, College of Science and Engineering, Flinders University, Bedford Park, SA 5042, Australia"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4573-2945","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Patrick A.","family":"Hesp","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Beach and Dune Systems (BEADS) Laboratory, College of Science and Engineering, Flinders University, Bedford Park, SA 5042, Australia"}]},{"given":"Graziela","family":"Miot da Silva","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Beach and Dune Systems (BEADS) Laboratory, College of Science and Engineering, Flinders University, Bedford Park, SA 5042, Australia"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,11,23]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"395","DOI":"10.1038\/nclimate3303","article-title":"Forest disturbances under climate change","volume":"7","author":"Seidl","year":"2017","journal-title":"Nat.
