Between 2012 and 2025, VIIRS detected fire in 175 km² of Karabük at least once. In an average year it detected fire in 22 km², ranking 68th of 81 regions of Turkey.
Year by year
Detected area per year, km². Area of 0.01° cells with at least one detection in the year.
The busiest year was 2025, with 107 km² detected; the quietest was 2014, with 8.4 km². The 2021–2025 average is 135% higher than the 2012–2016 average.
Through the year
Share of all fire-days 2012–2025 by month. A fire-day is one cell with a detection on one day.
July, August and September together hold 42% of the fire-days in the record. The single busiest day was 25 July 2025, with detections in 46 cells.
Ground that burns again
Of the 175 km² with at least one detection, 8.4% had detections in three or more different years.
| Years with a detection | km² | Share |
|---|---|---|
| 1 year | 150 | 86% |
| 2 years | 10 | 5.9% |
| 3 to 5 years | 4.7 | 2.7% |
| 6 to 10 years | 3.6 | 2.1% |
| 11 years or more | 6.5 | 3.7% |
The half-degree square with the most fire-days is centred at 41.25, 32.75 and holds 99% of the region's fire-days.

- How these figures are madeDetected area, cells, and the single-satellite record.
Detected area counts every 0.01° cell with at least one VIIRS detection, so a small fire counts as a whole cell and a fire missed by cloud or between passes is absent. Borders: Natural Earth 1:10m. 2012 begins on 20 January.
