How does mass movement affect a cliff?
Mass movement can weaken the stability of a cliff by removing support from underneath it, leading to erosion and potential collapse. The weight and force of the material moving down the cliff can increase stress on the rocks, causing them to crack or break. This process can further accelerate erosion and alter the landscape over time.

What is cliff retreat?
A cliff retreat is a form of natural erosion. Rocks in the face of the cliff are broken down by wind and water (rain, waves, etc). The material in the cliff is loosened, and parts of the cliff face collapse. Eventually, an entire section of the cliff will fall into the sea, meaning that the cliff edge has retreated. The pace of cliff retreat is determined by the strength of the rocks in the cliff face, more than the cliff's height. It also most often occurs where the base of the cliff is continually being saturated by water, weakening the rock further.
How can cliff colapse be solved?
Cliff collapse prevention measures involve stabilization techniques such as installing rock bolts, mesh netting, and vegetation to secure the slope. Proper drainage systems and grading can also help manage water runoff and reduce erosion. Regular monitoring of the cliff's condition and addressing any signs of instability can help prevent collapse.
How cliff collapse affects people?
If the cliff falls onto people it can harm them, another way it can affect them is if their agricultural land was there and it fell off. This would mean that they would be loosing their livelihoods. If people own houses that are close to the cliff edge, the local council sometimes asks them to knock it down, as if it falls off it may injure people below on the beach. Some people have to knock down their own houses with their bare hands.
