NDVI and MSAVI2 time series extracted from burned areas, control plots, and VAR-modeled plots were used to analyze vegetation regeneration. The SWAT model, calibrated for pre-fire conditions due to data limitations, was used to evaluate subbasin-scale hydrological impacts. Results showed limited recovery in the first post-fire year, with vegetation indices remaining lower in burned areas compared to control plots. High- and moderate-burn-severity areas presented the most significant NDVI and MSAVI2 increases. The SWAT model showed increased water yield, percolation, and surface runoff with reduced evapotranspiration in post-fire conditions. Peak discharges were notably higher during wet periods. Modified land use and soil properties affected the catchment\u2019s hydrological balance, emphasizing the complexities of post-fire catchment dynamics.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs16244745","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,19]],"date-time":"2024-12-19T10:54:20Z","timestamp":1734605660000},"page":"4745","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Assessment of Post-Fire Impacts on Vegetation Regeneration and Hydrological Processes in a Mediterranean Peri-Urban Catchment"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Evgenia","family":"Koltsida","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Engineering Geology and Hydrogeology, School of Mining and Metallurgical Engineering, National Technical University of Athens, Heroon Polytechniou 9, Zografou, 157 80 Athens, Greece"}]},{"given":"Nikos","family":"Mamassis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Hydrology and Water Resources Development, School of Civil Engineering, National Technical University of Athens, Heroon Polytechniou 9, Zografou, 157 80 Athens, Greece"}]},{"given":"Evangelos","family":"Baltas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Hydrology and Water Resources Development, School of Civil Engineering, National Technical University of Athens, Heroon Polytechniou 9, Zografou, 157 80 Athens, Greece"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1699-6714","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Vassilis","family":"Andronis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Remote Sensing, School of Rural and Surveying Engineering, National Technical University of Athens, Heroon Polytechniou 9, Zografou, 157 80 Athens, Greece"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4661-297X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Andreas","family":"Kallioras","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Engineering Geology and Hydrogeology, School of Mining and Metallurgical Engineering, National Technical University of Athens, Heroon Polytechniou 9, Zografou, 157 80 Athens, Greece"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,19]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"81","DOI":"10.1007\/s40725-020-00116-5","article-title":"Satellite Remote Sensing Contributions to Wildland Fire Science and Management","volume":"6","author":"Chuvieco","year":"2020","journal-title":"Curr.
