This study examines vegetation recovery in Serra do A\u00e7or seven years after the 2017 wildfires, using remote sensing and field data to analyze post-fire dynamics. The primary goal was to assess whether fire severity, measured via the dNBR index from Sentinel-2 imagery, impacts vegetation recovery or if site-specific factors and pre-fire floristic composition are more influential. Randomly assigned plots based on previous land use and fire severity were analyzed for floristic attributes. To quantify and classify cover changes, a supervised classification methodology based on the random forest algorithm was applied to Sentinel-2 data. The results showed no clear link between fire severity and recovery; instead, local factors like soil and topography, along with dominant pre-fire species, influenced recovery. Acacia and eucalyptus communities grew faster and increased the occupied area but exhibited lower diversity than native vegetation communities. Supervised classifications achieved high accuracy (Kappa &gt; 0.90), showing increased shrubland areas and expansion of eucalyptus and acacia. The study highlights the methodology\u2019s effectiveness and potential for broader applications in future research.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/fire8050163","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,22]],"date-time":"2025-04-22T20:11:48Z","timestamp":1745352708000},"page":"163","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Applying Remote Sensing to Assess Post-Fire Vegetation Recovery: A Case Study of Serra do A\u00e7or (Portugal)"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"8","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0006-5476-7284","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Noah","family":"Wassner","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"CEGOT-Centre of Studies in Geography and Spatial Planning, Department of Geography and Tourism, University of Coimbra, 3004-530 Coimbra, Portugal"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0142-4764","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Albano","family":"Figueiredo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"CEGOT-Centre of Studies in Geography and Spatial Planning, Department of Geography and Tourism, University of Coimbra, 3004-530 Coimbra, Portugal"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8665-4459","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ad\u00e9lia N.","family":"Nunes","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"CEGOT-Centre of Studies in Geography and Spatial Planning, Department of Geography and Tourism, University of Coimbra, 3004-530 Coimbra, Portugal"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,22]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"European Commission, and Joint Research Centre (2018).
