Why are tectonic and volcanic earthquake more destructive than earthquakes caused by landslides?
Barrels are somehow involved.
Is a landslide slower than weathering?
Landslides are very fast. Weathering is slow.
How landslides change earth surface?
they make new land
How are avalanches or landslides alike?
Avalanches and landslides are similar, as they are both a natural event, where snow/ice or mud freely slides down an inclined surface e.g. a mountain. Other than what is actually sliding, thereis almost no difference between the two.
If a landslide happens near an ocean will tsunami form?
If the landslide enters the ocean or occurs underwater, yes. While tsunamis are most often caused by earthquakes, landslides are the second leading cause. In fact, landslides can sometimes trigger much larger tsunamis than those associated with earthquakes.
Why are landslides more of a concern in British Columbia than in Saskatchewan?
Rocky Mountain.. More rainfall ... Landslide Flat land ... Landslides?

How does landslides change the earth?
Landslides can make new lands after they occur. Because it looks different than before it occurred. landslides can change water sources too.

What happened to turnagain heights in 1964?
Landslides triggered by earthquakes often cause more destruction than the earthquakes themselves. During the 1964 Alaska quake, shock-induced landslides devastated the Turnagain Heights residential development and many downtown areas in Anchorage.
How have the changes in murree since the 1960s affected the writer's feelings for it?
Murre lost some of its trees, the resulting landslides and now it is being threatened by deforestation.
Does landslide cause more erosion than tornadoes or storms?
Compared to tornadoes, yes. Tornadoes generally do not cause much erosion. With storms, it is tricky, as many landslides are triggered by storms. However, in areas prone to landslides, such events likely cause the greates portion of erosion.

Are shallow earthquakes more destructive than deeper earthquakes of the same intensity?
Earthquakes that happen in shallow water cause tsunami and other side affects like landslides.
