Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Translational slides occur when masses move down and out by sliding on planes of weakness, such as faults, bedding, or clay rich layers. Rockfalls involve the free fall of individual rocks or blocks of rock, debris flows involve a mixture of soil, rock, water, and air flowing rapidly downslope, rotational slides occur when the slide material rotates along a concave-upward rupture surface, and struzstroms refer to the swirling patterns of a tornado.
