Manage episode 468559154 series 3139505
In this episode we will cover:
- Mass movement refers to the downhill displacement of soil and rock, influenced by weathering, erosion, and gravity.
- Rockfalls occur when cliff material breaks and falls. In contrast, slides involve the straight-line movement of material down a slope.
- Slumps, another type of mass movement, are characterized by movement along a curved path. Over time, shifts in a cliff's center of gravity can lead to instability and ultimately, mass movement events.
