Model estimates of the probability and volume of debris flows that may be produced by a storm following recent wildfire; re-release of ten wildfires across California, 1997—2015

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.
