Forecasting the Frequency and Magnitude of Postfire Debris Flows Across Southern California
Abstract Southern California has a long history of damaging debris flows after wildfire. Despite recurrent loss, forecasts of the frequency and magnitude of postfire debris flows are not available for the region like they are for earthquakes. Instead, debris flow hazards are typically assessed in a...
