T1  - The Reading Palaeofire Database: an expanded global resource to document changes in fire regimes from sedimentary charcoal records
T2  - Earth System Science Data
N2  - Sedimentary charcoal records are widely used to reconstruct regional changes in fire regimes through time in the geological past. Existing global compilations are not geographically comprehensive and do not provide consistent metadata for all sites. Furthermore, the age models provided for these records are not harmonised and many are based on older calibrations of the radiocarbon ages. These issues limit the use of existing compilations for research into past fire regimes. Here, we present an expanded database of charcoal records, accompanied by new age models based on recalibration of radiocarbon ages using IntCal20 and Bayesian age-modelling software. We document the structure and contents of the database, the construction of the age models, and the quality control measures applied. We also record the expansion of geographical coverage relative to previous charcoal compilations and the expansion of metadata that can be used to inform analyses. This first version of the Reading Palaeofire Database contains 1676 records (entities) from 1480 sites worldwide. The database (RPDv1b – Harrison et al., 2021) is available at https://doi.org/10.17864/1947.000345.

Version 1 of the Reading Palaeofire Database (RPDv1b – Harrison et al., 2021) is available in SQL format at https://doi.org/10.17864/1947.000345 . The individual tables are also available as .csv files. The R package used to create the new age models is available at https://github.com/special-uor/ageR (last access: 21 February 2022) and https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.4636716 (Villegas-Diaz et al., 2021).
