This table contains measured and modeled postfire debris flow volumes alongside the associated sources for debris flow documentation, locations, and volumes. We conducted a search of scientific literature and news media reports to find documentation of debris flows that may have followed all wildfires greater than 100 square kilometers that occurred between 1984 and 2021 in California. The wildfires listed are all the fires we found that had documented postfire debris flows. Some fires had field-measurements of debris flow volume. Where field-measurements of volume did not exist, we used model data on postfire debris-flow likelihood and volume from U.S. Geological Survey Emergency Assessment of Post-Fire Debris-Flow...
This data release presents a compilation of postfire sediment mobilization data from wildfires greater than 100 km2 that occurred in California or regions of southern Oregon that drain to the California coast between 1984 and 2021. This compilation includes three sources of sediment mobilization data: hillslope erosion modeled using the Water Erosion Prediction Project (WEPP) postfire erosion model (Lew and others, 2022 and references therein), field-derived measurements of postfire debris flow volumes, and modeled debris flow volumes produced using the U.S. Geological Survey Emergency Postfire Debris Flow Hazard Assessments (https://landslides.usgs.gov/hazards/postfire_debrisflow/). This dataset supports analysis...

This table contains geographic information defining watersheds that were burned in large wildfires (greater than 100 square kilometers) that occurred in California or California-draining regions (i.e., upper Klamath watershed) between the years 1984 and 2021. Each wildfire was broken into tens to thousands of small watersheds, and each row of this table contains geographic information defining a single watershed.
These data show all the postfire erosion results affiliated with this data release summed by wildfire and attached to a polygon of each fire perimeter, as defined by Monitoring Trends in Burn Severity (MTBS). The results are shown as attributes for each polygon of wildfire perimeter. Some of the original MTBS data (name, ignition date, and ID) were preserved to allow for joining to other MTBS data. Results include WEPP modeling results of hillslope and channel erosion, a sum of postfire debris flow modeling results and field-based measurements, and a few derived results such as total sediment and total yield (mass per area).
These data show model estimates of debris flow likelihood and volume that may be produced by a storm in a recently burned landscape. The scientific methods used by the U.S. Geological Survey Emergency Assessment of Post-Fire Debris-Flow Hazards were changed following 2015, and these shapefiles are a re-release of ten fires that occurred between 1997 and 2015 fires, using the updated methods. These ten fires were re-run to provide estimates of debris flow volumes as post-fire debris flows were documented but no field measurements were published.
These data were compiled for/to estimate predicted pre-fire burn severity for estimating hazard of post-fire debris flow for conservation populations of blue-lineage Colorado River Cutthroat Trout. Objective(s) of our study were to predicted burn severity. These data represent predicted pre-fire differenced Normalized Burn Ratio (dNBR) for portions of Colorado, Utah, and Wyoming and were created for the extent of historic distribution of blue-lineage Colorado River Cutthroat Trout in 2016-2022. These data were created by the U.S. Geological Survey, Southwest Biological Science Center using remote sensing and ecological modeling processes and techniques. These data can be used to compare observations of post wildfire...
This data release is a field-verified inventory of postfire hydrologic response for the 2020 CZU (San Mateo–Santa Cruz Unit) Lightning Complex, River Fire, Camel Fire, and Dolan Fire following a 26-29 January 2021 atmospheric river storm sequence. Postfire hydrologic response types include a) no response, b) minor response, and c) major response. A “minor” response was deemed capable of impairing infrastructure functioning (e.g., deposition or erosion along a road that could be regraded by mechanized earth-moving equipment within a matter of hours) or causing minor bodily injury (e.g., abrasions, sprains, or broken bones). A “major” response was deemed capable of causing sustained infrastructure impairment (e.g.,...

This is a shapefile containing polygons of watersheds that were burned in wildfires that occurred in California between 1984 and 2021. The Water Erosion Prediction Project (WEPP) model for postfire erosion was run on all watersheds for the first year following wildfire and the results of this modeling effort are included as attributes of each watershed polygon.
