Description:
Abstract:
Liquefaction is a natural phenomenon in which saturated, sandy soils lose their strength and behave as liquid. Liquefaction is a caused by severe ground shaking during earthquake events. This data set identifies the liquefaction potential for various communities along the Oregon coast.
Purpose:
This data set identifies those areas in selected Oregon communities that will suffer more damage, relative to others, during a damaging earthquake due to liquefaction. The analysis is based on the behavior of the soils, and does not depict the absolute liquefaction potential at any particular site.
