Short summary
The main objective is to fill knowledge gaps related to debris flow hazards in northern Canada for decision-makers. This study has tested two debris flow susceptibility methods in areas along the Yukon Alaska Highway corridor. One knowledge driven qualitative heuristic method for the northern part of the corridor and one data driven quantitative method using Flow-R for a smaller area close to Kluane Lake within the corridor. Both methods have shown good correlation with debris flow inventory.
