Hace 2 días · landslide, the movement downslope of a mass of rock, debris, earth, or soil (soil being a mixture of earth and debris). Landslides occur when gravitational and other types of shear stresses within a slope exceed the shear strength (resistance to shearing) of the materials that form the slope.

8 de may. de 2024 · Mudslides, a specific type of landslide, arise when a flow of mud moves down slopes, particularly after heavy rains. The primary difference lies in the material involved — landslides can be a mixture of larger debris and dirt, while mudslides are saturated soil and fine sediment. What causes landslides and how are triggers different?
27 de may. de 2024 · Mudflows, also known as debris flows, occur when loose soil and rock are saturated with water, becoming a viscous mixture that flows rapidly downhill. They can be triggered by intense rainfall, volcanic eruptions, or earthquakes.
Hace 3 días · Mudslides, also known as debris flows or mudflows, can be triggered by heavy rainfall, earthquakes, or volcanic eruptions, making them a constant threat in certain regions. In this article, we will explore 16 extraordinary facts about mudslides that will help you understand the magnitude and impact of these natural disasters.
15 de may. de 2024 · Moisture-driven Landslides (MDL) are triggered by increased water infiltration, which results from increased rainfall, snowmelts, and their combinations, leading to elevated sub-surface moisture content or an increased volume of water (Whiteley et al. 2019 ).
