What hapens during a avalanche?
In an avalanche a small amount of snow or mud on a mountain or hill starts moving downhill. As it moves, more snow or mud joins it. As it slides along, it starts knocking over items in its path and burying them. Sometimes those objects are humans. If it is snow and the people are not rescued soon enough, they die. In California, a number of people do not like all the plants on the hill sides so they remove them. When a strong rain comes, it turns the hillside to mud. An avalanche comes. Mud covers the houses below. If it takes enough land away from the top of the hill, a house up there is likely to lose its foundation and start falling over the hill. While inclement weather in California provides the immediate cause of the avalanches of mud, people clearing land of trees and brushes is the real reason they happen.
How deforestation is responsible for landslide?
Trees and plants form root systems in the soil. These roots act like nets, helping to hold the soil in place. The roots, along with shade from the trees, also keep the soil moist and healthy so that it can absorb and drain lots of water. When trees and plants get cut down, those root systems die and decompose. The soil dries out and becomes very loose. Then, when a very heavy rain falls, the soil can wash away in a mudslide. This is most likely to happen where the ground is steep, like on the side of a hill or small mountain.On a slope, tree roots help to hold the land together and pin it to the solid ground well below the surface.

Why would a farmer plow across a hillside instead of plowing straight down the slope?
If the farmer plowed straight down the slope, all his water for irrigating the plants would run down the hill, and the crops at the top of the hill would die from lack of water, while plants at the bottom of the hill would die from over watering. By plowing across the hillside, each row holds the water evenly along its length, giving each plant in the row an equal amount of water.
