While wildland fire is globally most common at the savannah-grassland ecotone, there is little evidence of fire in coastal temperate rainforests. We reconstructed fire activity with a 700-year fire history derived from fire scars and stand establishment from 30 sites in a very wet (more than 4000 mm...
