	year = {2023},
	note = {Anyone who has driven along the Oregon coast has seen roadside deposits of light-colored rock close to the soil surface that looks like sand.  These are actually ancient sand dunes. Pleistocene paleodunes have some cementation, but often display slope instability. {\textquotedblleft}Weakening of cementing agents via changes to groundwater conditions due to altered vegetation, climate change, or contamination, for example, could promote slope instability, threatening lives and infrastructure. This study aims to investigate the variability in the type and degree of cementation and to determine how they are affected by changes in groundwater conditions{\textquotedblright} (from the Abstract). This interesting study addresses the Newport dune sheet, extending from Johnson Creek in the north to Yachats in the south. PSU Dissertations and Theses. Paper 6309.},

The landslides were found through the interpretation of aerial photographs.{\textquotedblright} The slides were mapped, analyzed and classified as ancient, historic or recent.  {\textquotedblleft}It was found that most landslides occur in conjunction with silt stone materials of Tertiary age. Areas with similar morphology but of sandstone materials are less likely to have landslides. Structurally, landslides occur in areas with steeply dipping Tertiary bedding planes or in areas with steep slopes such as river valleys. A large portion of the landslides in the study area occur at contact zones between Tertiary and Quaternary materials. Most of these slides are ancient, stable slides and are larger than other slides in the study area. The only active ancient landslides in the coastal zone take place in the Nye mudstones near Beverly Beach State Park.{\textquotedblright} (from the Abstract) Appendices list slides, summarize their characteristics and show them on a map of the county.
