Published landslide inventories from Hurricane Maria (Bessette-Kirton and others, 2019; Baxstrom and others, 2021a, 2021b; Einbund and others, 2021a, 2021b) provided detailed mapping, including 2919 locations of headscarp points, travel distance lines, source areas, and landslide-affected areas (combined source and runout) in Lares, Naranjito and Utuado muncipalities. Landslide types included slumps, debris flows, rock falls, and other slope failures. We developed criteria to extract a subset of these published landslide-affected areas representative of Hurricane Maria\u2019s most mobile (MMM) channelized debris flows. MMM were used for topographic characterization of channelized runout zones and assessment of predictive success of debris-flow inundation modeling (Brien and others, 2024). We selected MMM based on two characteristics: 1) &gt;40% of the runout area within ~5 m of a channel network derived from a 1-m digital elevation model (Brien and others, 2024) and 2) runout length &gt;100 m. \nThis data release includes four shapefiles, divided by municipality and lithology, containing 124 unique landslide-affected areas:\nNaranjitoMMM.shp \u2013 MMM from one study area in Naranjito municipality\nLaresMMM.shp - MMM in from three study areas in Lares municipality\nUtuado_sedsMMM.shp \u2013 MMM from one study area in Utuado municipality, sedimentary terrane\nUtuado_intrusivesMMM.shp \u2013 MMM from four study areas in Utuado municipality, intrusive granodiorite terrane\nReferences:\nBaxstrom, K.W., Einbund, M.M., Schulz, W.H., 2021a, Map data from landslides triggered by Hurricane Maria in a section of Naranjito, Puerto Rico, U.S. Geological Survey data release, https://doi.org/10.5066/P9GBGA4I.\nBaxstrom, K.W., Einbund, M.M., Schulz, W.H., 2021b, Map data from landslides triggered by Hurricane Maria in the greater karst region of northwest Puerto Rico: U.S. Geological Survey data release, https://doi.org/10.5066/P9YYU7W1. \nBessette-Kirton, E.K., Coe, J.A., Kelly, M.A., Cerovski-Darriau, C., Schulz, W.H., 2019, Map data from landslides triggered by Hurricane Maria in four study areas of Puerto Rico.
