Evaluating the Near and Mid Infrared Bi-Spectral Space for Assessing Fire Severity and Comparison with the Differenced Normalized Burn Ratio
Round 1
Reviewer 1 Report
The elaborated evaluations for the assessment of the severity of the fire are interesting and promising.
The most significant limitation of the study is that the results are based on only two fires that took place in California. A study whose conclusions are based on only two extraordinary events can be considered rather as an initial study of the problem. The authors partially point out this fact in the article. I recommend that they emphasize this fact in the discussion and conclusions section of the article.
It is not clear from the article what impact on the use of the described techniques would change the character of the stand, especially the type of burning material, its geometry (especially height), stand density, etc. The authors should explain this fact in the article.

Sampling design for field measurements should be included in methods.
