Question

what is land slide? What are causes of land slides​

Answer 1

Answer:

A landslide is any geologic process in which gravity causes rock, soil, artificial fill or a combination of the three to move down a slope. Several things can trigger landslides, including the slow weathering of rocks as well as soil erosion, earthquakes and volcanic activity.

CAUSES:

•    Weathering is the natural procedure of rock deterioration that leads to weak, landslide - susceptive materials.
•    Erosion caused by sporadic running water such as streams, rivers, wind, currents, ice and waves wipes out latent and lateral slope support enabling landslides to occur easily.
