The landslide hazard in the San Francisco Bay region The landslide hazard in the San Francisco Bay region
Development in hilly or mountainous terrain has resulted in much landslide damage. Areas susceptible to landsliding can be recognized. Practices for minimizing landslides are presented.

Landslide problems at West Valley Nuclear Service Center, New York: An assessment and recommendations for study Landslide problems at West Valley Nuclear Service Center, New York: An assessment and recommendations for study
Problems due to landslides prompted a visit to the West Valley Nuclear Service Center (WVNSC) near Springville, New York, on March 15 and 16, 1976. From this visit a report was prepared and contains the following: An assessment of the landslide conditions. An assessment of the immediacy of the landslide problems. A suggested study program for reducing the landslide hazard to an...

Landslides - Cause and effect Landslides - Cause and effect
Landslides can cause seismic disturbances; landslides can also result from seismic disturbances, and earthquake-induced slides have caused loss of life in many countries. Slides can cause disastrous flooding, particularly when landslide dams across streams are breached, and flooding may trigger slides. Slope movement in general is a major process of the geologic environment that places...
