What is an earth flow?

An earth flow is a type of mass wasting where a slow-to-moderate flow of saturated earth material moves downslope. It typically occurs on gentle slopes and is characterized by the movement of soil and regolith mixed with water. Earth flows can lead to gradual and relatively localized erosion of the landscape.

What are the characteristics of mudslides?

Mudslides are fast-moving landslides that involve mixed materials of water, rock, soil, and debris flowing downhill. They are triggered by heavy rainfall or rapid snowmelt, typically occurring in mountainous or hilly areas. Mudslides can cause significant damage to infrastructure and pose a threat to human life due to their destructive force and speed.
