Why are spectacular rock slides and rock-falls so common in Yosemite Valley?
Spectacular rock slides and rock-falls are common in Yosemite Valley due to the region's unique geological composition and processes. The granite formations are shaped by both glacial activity and weathering, which weakens the rock. Additionally, the steep cliffs and frequent freeze-thaw cycles create conditions conducive to rock dislodgment. The combination of these factors, along with seismic activity, contributes to the prevalence of rock slides and falls in the area.

Earthquakes can cause a large downhill movement called?
Earthquakes can trigger landslides, which are large downhill movements of earth and rock.
What are the similarities are rock falls and rock slides?
Rock falls and rock slides both involve the movement of rock material down a slope due to gravity, and they can occur in similar geological settings, such as steep cliffs or mountainous areas. Both phenomena can be triggered by factors like weathering, erosion, and earthquakes, leading to the sudden release of rock. Additionally, they can pose significant hazards to infrastructure and safety in populated areas. However, rock falls typically involve individual rocks or small groups breaking loose, while rock slides involve larger masses of rock moving as a cohesive unit along a defined surface.
