Avalanches and rock slides are the fastest forms of mass wasting.
Soil creep is the slowest form of mass wasting.
Slope Gradient
Usually growth of native vegetation on slopes does not trigger mass movement. The root systems help to hold soil in place providing stability.
A muflow is a form of mass wasting.
The removal of vegetation by fire or logging can promote mass wasting by destabilizing the slopes. When vegetation is removed, the roots that once held the soil together and prevented erosion are also removed. This makes the slopes more susceptible to erosion and mass movement, such as landslides or debris flows, especially during heavy rainfall events.

i am trying to find out what type of rock is often involved in mass wasting. what area closest to long beach, California has experienced mass wasting, and describe this event.
mass wasting changes the surface of the earth quickly
The force of gravity causes mass wasting to occur faster.
