Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Slump refers to a type of mass movement that occurs along a curved surface, leading to the downward and outward movement of slope material, typically soil or rock. This movement often results in a rotation of the slumped material at the base, distinguishing it from other types of slides that move along a planar surface.
