Summary

This data release contains gridded estimates of postfire debris flow probability and magnitude for six different rainfall and wildfire scenarios in southern California. The scenarios represent the present and possible future precipitation and fire regimes for the region. The results are provided for 1 km2 cells across the study area. The data release accompanies the journal article Kean, J.W. and Staley, D.M. (2021). Forecasting the frequency and magnitude of postfire debris flow across southern California, Earth's Future, 2020EF001735.

Purpose

Data are intended to be used to spatially represent the estimates of postfire debris flow probability in southern California under different precipitation and fire regime scenarios. Calculated probability estimates in the text file contained within this data release should be joined to this raster dataset to geospatially represent the probability estimates.
