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.  This is a research paper taking the place of a thesis, {\textquotedblleft}in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE.{\textquotedblright} },
