What material making up a scree slope is called?
The material making up a scree slope is called "scree" or "talus." It consists of loose rock fragments that have fallen from a cliff or steep slope, typically due to weathering and erosion processes. These angular pieces of rock accumulate at the base of the slope, forming a steeply angled deposit. Scree slopes are often unstable and can shift or move due to gravity and other environmental factors.
