Answer:
Landslide also called as Landslip, is physical displacement of geomaterials, it is natural / man induced and causes removal or erosion of the part of land.
Explanation:
- A landslide is a form of mass wasting including a wide range of ground movements including debris fall, slope failure, and mudflows.
- Some landslides occur under oceans called as submarine landslides. Gravity is a prime driving force, and some are associated with earthquakes and rainfall.
- Physical and chemical weathering also takes place as a result of the landslides as it erodes the surface of the object whatever it comes in contact with.
- Landslides caused by humans have led to Deforestation, blasts in mining and vibrations from machinery, and habitat loss.
- Landslides occurring at greater depths have the potential to trigger large Tsunamis and destroy natural harbors.
- Landslides characterized by debris flows are full of mud, soil rocks that move with great speed and are often hazardous.
