Some New Zealand Landslides
Landslides and Earthflows near Ventura, Southern California
UNOFF and other phenomena associated with heavy rains during the winter of I937-I938 produced many significant changes in the landscape of southern California. The rainfall was especially heavy in the period February 28-March 3, I938, when 712 inches of rain fell; at Ventura 4 inches fell in 24 hours on March 2 and 3. Landslides were set in motion, and great quantities of material in areas of weathered bedrock were moved by earthflows. The Ventur…
The Mono Craters, California
The Mono Craters are a unique series of obsidian domes and coulees south of Mono Lake, in eastern California. From an undulating, pumice-covered plain their steep slopes rise nearly 2700 feet above the surrounding country and reach an altitude of 9169 feet at the summit of the highest dome. Were the range not dwarfed by the neighboring Sierra Nevada, "it would be far-famed for its magnificent scenery as well as for its geological interest." The M…
