“…(2) In November 2006, a lack of antecedent snowpack allowed abundant and intense rainfall to be delivered directly to the volcano's steep slopes, which consist of plentiful unconsolidated volcaniclastic sediment. This allowed extensive mobilization of sediment in the form of debris flows (Burns et al., 2015; Mosbrucker et al., 2019). Prior to this event, there were several local maxima in channel gradient (exceeding 0.1 m m −1 ) along Loowit Creek detectable in lidar imagery (University of Washington Libraries, 2018).…”

“…Such events effectively deliver great amounts of rainfall to geographically focused regions. These “firehoses” of tropical moisture can last several days and, when augmented by snowmelt, are a key mechanism causing substantial flooding and debris flows in the western coastal United States (Burns et al., 2015; Lancaster et al., 2012; Li et al., 2019; Mosbrucker et al., 2019; Ralph & Dettinger, 2011; Ralph et al., 2006; Sobieszczyk et al., 2008).…”

“…A medida que aumente la frecuencia de las perturbaciones, también lo hará el número de árboles muertos y derribados 386 , lo que cerrará carreteras, senderos y áreas de campamento y podría causar lesiones o la muerte a los recreacionistas 387 . Un mayor riesgo de inundaciones en los meses de invierno supondrá riesgos para las instalaciones recreativas y los usuarios 388 . La mayor frecuencia de humaredas y eventos de calor extremo aumentará los riesgos para los recreacionistas de verano que disfrutan del aire libre, especialmente para las actividades de gran esfuerzo 389 .…”

“…Además, múltiples publicaciones revisadas por expertos documentan las interacciones entre el cambio climático y el uso de la tierra, como el crecimiento de la interfaz urbano-forestal 102,103,104 y la creciente exposición de las comunidades a eventos relacionados con el clima, como incendios forestales e inundaciones 103,374,381 . Múltiples publicaciones documentan estos riesgos acumulativos para la seguridad, el acceso a los servicios y el sentido de lugar en todo el Noroeste 376,377,378,379,380,388 .…”
