Figure S1. a) Total area (km2) within each concession type for Papua (World Resources Institute 2015b, 2015c, 2015a), with percentages giving remaining forest cover in 2012, based on land cover from Margono et al. (2014), and b) Annual MODIS FRP from 2003-2013 (in MW) for each concession type. Refer to Figures 2 and 3 in the main text for area and FRP totals for Sumatra and Kalimantan.

Figure S2. Peatland distribution for Sumatra and Kalimantan (Wahyunto et al 2004, 2003).

Figure S4. Number of years with fire observations from 2003-2013, calculated for all 1-km2 pixels in Sumatra (top row) and Kalimantan (bottom row) with respect to individual concession types (colored lines) and all land area both within and outside of concessions (“All,” black lines). An observation of 11 indicates that a pixel burned every year from 2003-2013. Columns indicate observations for: 1) peatlands only, 2) non-forest, and 3) intact + degraded forest.

Mixed concessions are due to overlapping boundaries of oil palm, timber, and/or logging concessions.
