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).
