Yes, they are partly caused by gravity.
Gravity acts alone to produce avalanches and landslides. When the force of gravity exceeds the strength of the material holding it in place on a slope, the material will move downhill in the form of an avalanche or landslide.
Rock avalanches can move at great speeds due to the combination of loose rock material and their steep slopes. When the slope fails, the rocks can accelerate quickly due to gravity, generating high speeds as they travel downhill. The fast movement of rock debris in avalanches is also attributed to the lack of friction and resistance as it flows over the ground.
it is caused when rapid temperature changes occur, a heavy snow fall, or strong winds. Skiers or snowboarders also set off avalanches because they will ski on the fresh loose snow and if the conditions are right the snow will crack beneath them. Loud noises do not set off avalanches.

Tides on Earth are caused by the gravity of the moon and, to a lesser degree, the sun.
Global warming is unlikely to cause avalanches directly. They are usually caused by runoff from heavy rain and intense storms. Global warming is expected to cause more intense storms and could therefore be an indirect cause of avalanches.

Avalanches are caused when a big impact of noise strikes. This is because sound vibrates objects and therefore vibrates mounds of snow, causing them to tumble down.
Rock avalanches can move at great speeds due to the combination of loose rock material and their steep slopes. When the slope fails, the rocks can accelerate quickly due to gravity, generating high speeds as they travel downhill. The fast movement of rock debris in avalanches is also attributed to the lack of friction and resistance as it flows over the ground.
Avalanches occurs when huge snow masses become loose and flow downhill. This is caused by many factors including temperature, vibration, sloppy angle and so much more.
Earth's tides are caused by the Moon's gravity (in combination with the Sun's).
Gravity is the force that causes mass movement. When a mass is on a slope or incline, gravity pulls it downhill, leading to movements such as landslides, rockfalls, and avalanches.

there are no avalanches caused by the weather in the 20th century but
