Landslides, also known as landslips, are several forms of mass wasting that may include a wide range of ground movements, such as rockfalls, mudflows, shallow or deep-seated slope failures and debris flows.
A landslide is defined as the movement of a mass of rock, debris, or earth down a slope. Landslides are a type of "mass wasting," which denotes any down-slope movement of soil and rock under the direct influence of gravity. The term "landslide" encompasses five modes of slope movement: falls, topples, slides, spreads, and flows.
Los deslizamientos de tierra suceden cuando grandes cantidades de rocas, tierra o detritos (masa sólida descompuesta) bajan por una pendiente. Los aludes de barro, también conocidos como flujos de lodo o deslizamientos de barro, son un tipo común de deslizamiento de tierra a gran velocidad que tiende a desplazarse formando canales.
Learn what landslides are, where and when they occur, and how to prepare for and respond to them. Find resources from state and federal agencies, emergency management, and conservation groups.
