<span>Landslides refer to the process by which natural
forces move weathered rocks and soil from one place to another. This usually
occurs on a slope where the failure of materials results to the movement of
rock and soil. This debris is moved by the natural force of gravity which can
cause massive destructions in areas that are highly elevated. </span>
