Wildfire Knowledge Graph · Fire Ecology & Recovery
Working definition
A rapid flow of water, sediment, rock and debris from a burned watershed, often triggered by intense rainfall after fire.
In plain language
A rapid flow of water, sediment, rock and debris from a burned watershed, often triggered by intense rainfall after fire.
Why it matters
Post-fire Debris Flow is useful because it separates one specific part of wildfire behaviour, exposure, operations or evidence from nearby concepts that can otherwise be mixed together.
