Summary

This data release includes the detailed results from laboratory testing of colluvium and landslide deposit specimens collected from coastal bluffs near Mukilteo, Washington. The specimens were collected as part of a larger effort to characterize the potential for shallow landslide initiation along the Puget Sound Railway corridor between the cities of Everett and Seattle. The details of the specimen collection and research objectives of the study are provided in: “Assessing Landslide Potential on Coastal Bluffs near Mukilteo, Washington—Geologic Site Characterization for Hydrologic Monitoring” (Mirus et al., 2016). Laboratory experiments includes test to estimate the following properties: specific gravity, porosity, bulk and grain [...]
