What damage can earthquakestsunamis and landslides cause?
All three: earthquake, tsunami, and landslide, have the potential to cause extensive damage to property and may result in great loss of animal and human life.
What do landslides cause?
DEATH.
Does deflation cause landslides?
no
Does wind cause most landslides?
No. Wind plays little if any role in landslides. Most landslides are caused by heavy rain on unstable slopes, expecially where vegetation has been removed or burned. Earthquakes are another common cause of landslides.
Does graivty cause landslides?
yes
Can landslides be caused by plates in the earth moving?
Indirectly. The movement of tectonic plates is the cause of the majority of earthquakes. Earthquakes can cause landslides.
Is air pollution cause landslides?
Air pollution does not directly cause landslides. However, pollutants in the air can contribute to environmental factors that weaken the stability of soil and rock, increasing the risk of landslides in certain areas. Heavy rainfall following air pollution can also contribute to landslides by saturating the soil and decreasing its stability.
Can Landslides and mudslides result from both volcanoes and earthquakes. True or false?
True earthquakes and volcanoes can cause landslides.
What agents of erosion cause landslides?
Water and Gravity.
Does illegal logging cause tsunamis?
Landslides, yes.Tsunamis, no.
How does earthquake cause landslide?
Earthquakes cause shaking that causes soil, rocks to slide down a mountain side. The longer the earthquake the more likely there will be large landslides. Volcanoes can also cause landslides when they erupt.
What damage can earthquakestsunamis landslides cause?
Earthquakes, tsunamis and landslides can cause considerable damage to lives and property.In the case of tsunamis, the area affected can be devastated due to the sheer mass and destructive weight of the wave as it comes onshore. The wave is just as destructive as it flows back to the sea. The retreating wave carries debris, smashed properties, animals, and people who failed to get to higher ground in time, back out to sea. There can also be several smaller after waves. The salty seawater can ruin food crops and affect the soil for sometime to come. Earthquakes can collapse buildings and bury many people. Gas and water pipes can be severed, and roads made impassible by road vehicles. Landslides and mudslides, if in a populated area, can swamp and cover whole villages, trapping and killing many of the residents.
