Debris Flow-Confluences
Field name = [DF_Junct]
The Debris Flow-Confluence attribute provides an index of debris flow susceptibility along steep headwater streams (higher values = higher susceptibility). The attribute is based on the model of Miller and Burnett (2008) and governing variables include the number of shallow landslide sites that trigger a debris flow, headwater channel steepness, its confinement and angles of tributary confluences. The index, a probability of susceptibility of channels to debris flow movement, scour and deposition, is an empirical model calibrated for the Oregon Coast Range. However, it should provide a approximate index for debris flows in most mountain terrains.
The Debris Flow-Confluence attribute shows the susceptibility only at confluences to aid in the analysis of overlaps between debris flow potential and important resources such as sensitive fish habitats.
