Summary This data release is a field-verified inventory of postfire debris flows for the 2021 Dixie Fire following a 23-25 October 2021 atmospheric river storm and 12 June 2022 thunderstorm. The “README.txt” file describes the fields for the “Inventory.csv” file. The “Chambers” and “Chips” rain gage data referenced in the inventory are included as: “Chambers-Oct2021-Storm.csv”, “Chambers-Jun2022-Storm.csv”, “Chips-Oct2021-Storm.csv”, and “Chips-Jun2022-Storm.csv.” The fields for the rain gage data, which includes the geographic locations of the gages, are also described in the “README.txt” file. Fields with value “-9999” indicate that data are not available or do not exist.

This data release includes time-series, qualitative descriptions, and laboratory testing data from two monitoring stations installed in Puerto Rico following Hurricane Maria in 2017, which led to tens of thousands of landslides across the island (Bessette-Kirton et al., 2017). The stations were installed in July of 2018 to investigate subsurface hydrologic response to rainfall and develop a quantitative link between rainfall and landsliding. The Toro Negro site is located within the state protected Toro Negro rainforest near 18°10’N, 66°34’W and the Utuado site is located outside the city of Utuado near 18°17’N, 66°39’W. The soil found at the Toro Negro site is low-permeability, fine-grained and cohesive, and underlain...

During September 2017, Hurricane Maria caused widespread landsliding throughout mountainous regions of Puerto Rico, with more than 71,000 landslides being subsequently identified from aerial imagery (Hughes et al., 2019). Most landslides apparently mobilized as debris flows and occurred within soil (unconsolidated material overlying saprolite and bedrock) and saprolite overlying less-weathered rock (e.g., Bessette-Kirton et al., 2019a). To better understand the characteristics of Maria-triggered landslides, debris flows, and materials in which landslides occurred, we performed reconnaissance-level studies of 118 landslides, 46 soil exposures generally within landslide scars, 24 saprolite exposures, and 37 rock exposures....
