Abstract: In this submission we present several datasets collected to study post-wildfire debris flow triggering and evolution. The goal of this submission is to make these data including seismic, photographic, rainfall, and infiltration measurements publicly available to any interested party. These observations provide a comprehensive dataset to study debris flow triggering, grain size, and velocity, as well as, a tool for better assessing the efficacy of using seismic readings for post-wildfire monitoring. We encourage their use by the scientific community and general public.
