While gravity and friction will hold loose material, cohesion within rock surfaces is also important. Anything that reduces the friction (such as water), or reduces cohesion (such as a tremor) or adds potential energy (more rock, structures, people, vehicles) can cause the material to slide downhill over the underlying material.
When stress is greater than strength,the slope becomes unstable and slope failure may occur. A landslide is a kind of slope failure.
Landslides occur when a large chunk of the "toe" aka bottom of a hill is removed or let's go from the sheer weight of the soil it supports, also from deforestation where the soil has nothing to hold it in place (like hair spray for girls or gel for guys) and the weight of soil can make it go faster or slower and they can be very dangerous to people as since boulders can come crashing down with the dust and other debris
by water weakening the ground and it slides down in an watery form of dangerous mud
landslides are formed when the soil is too dry or wet landslides are formed when the soil is too dry or wet landslides are formed when the soil is too dry or wet
it occurs because of the movement of the earth plates.
That is a great question! Something that can occur on a steep slop during an earthquake is that it can trigger massive land slides, which is pretty much just moving land, a land slide is pretty much like a mud slide!
land slides form when the ground gets too soft from water (ex. rain.)
Many are but many others are not. Most volcanoes on land occur where two plates press into each other and one slide slides under the other. Some volcanoes occur at hot spots, which are not related to plate boundaries.
Hurricanes do not occur on land. They are only water storms and blow into land.
More Earthquakes occur on land.

It is a geological phenomenon, which includes a wide range of ground movement; such as rockfalls, deep failure of slopes and shallow debris flows, which can occur in offshore, coastal, and onshore environments.
Yes, Avalanches do occur on Mount Everest.
Steep hills, mountians, and valleys.
It means that they won by A LOT.
it causes land slides
yes there has been
Hot springs, boiling mud pools, and land slides.
It pulls the soil downward.
One that slideS down on land.
