  • Estimating Post-Fire Debris-Flow Hazards Prior to Wildfire Using a Statistical Analysis of Historical Distributions of Fire Severity from Remote Sensing Data
    CSIRO PUBLISHING International Journal of Wildland Fire 2018, 27, 595–608 https://doi.org/10.1071/WF17122 Estimating post-fire debris-flow hazards prior to wildfire using a statistical analysis of historical distributions of fire severity from remote sensing data Dennis M.

BU.S. Geological Survey, New Mexico Water Science Center, Albuquerque, NM 87113, USA. CUniversity of Arizona, Department of Geosciences, Tucson, AZ 85721, USA. DCorresponding author. Email: [email protected] Abstract. Following wildfire, mountainous areas of the western United States are susceptible to debris flow during intense rainfall. Convective storms that can generate debris flows in recently burned areas may occur during or immediately after the wildfire, leaving insufficient time for development and implementation of risk mitigation strategies. We present a method for estimating post-fire debris-flow hazards before wildfire using historical data to define the range of potential fire severities for a given location based on the statistical distribution of severity metrics obtained from remote sensing. Estimates of debris-flow likelihood, magnitude and triggering rainfall threshold based on the statistically simulated fire severity data provide hazard predictions consistent with those calculated from fire severity data collected after wildfire. Simulated fire severity data also produce hazard estimates that replicate observed debris-flow occurrence, rainfall conditions and magnitude at a monitored site in the San Gabriel Mountains of southern California. Future applications of this method should rely on a range of potential fire severity scenarios for improved pre-fire estimates of debris-flow hazard.
