San Francisco Bay region landslide folio part C - Summary distribution of slides and earth flows in the San Francisco Bay region, California

The distribution of landslides evident in the landscape -- most of
which are slumps, translational slides, and earth flows -- is of
interest both for evaluation of hazard and risk and for use in
further study of landslides. Future movement of such landslides is
most likely to occur within and around the places where they have
previously occurred. A map showing the generalized distribution of
these landslides was published by Nilsen and Wright for the 9-county
San Francisco Bay region in 1979. Original sources available at the
time of that compilation were incomplete for the region. Landslide
mapping that has since become available provides a basis for
revision and extension of that work, and modern procedures allow
this to be done in digital form.
