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 landsli
