Which type of mass movement occurs when sediments slowly move downhill because freezing and thawing?
The process in which sediments move slowly downhill, is called creep. It is common where freezing and thawing occur. As ice expands in soil, it pushed sediments up. Then as soil thaws, the sediments move farther downslope. Over time, creep can move large amounts of sediment, possibly causing damage to some structures
What are the 4 ways sediments erode by gravity?
The four ways sediments erode by gravity are creep (gradual downhill movement of soil), slides (sudden movement of large masses of soil downhill), flows (movement of sediment mixed with water downhill), and falls (sediment falling freely due to gravity).
What is the definision of a landslide?
the definision of a landslide is a sudden downhill movement of these materials in large amounts
Where do the most sediments from the continents settle on?
The majority of sediments from continents settle in the oceans, especially in areas close to the coastlines where rivers deposit large amounts of sediment. These sediments can accumulate in continental shelves, deep sea trenches, and submarine canyons.
What would happen to large sediments if you were to continue moving?
if you were to continue moving the bottle for a long time what would happen to the large sediments?
Earthquakes can cause a large downhill movement called?
Earthquakes can trigger landslides, which are large downhill movements of earth and rock.
What do they call huge chunks of land washed away by water?
Those are typically called landslides or mudslides, which occur when large amounts of soil, rock, and debris are moved downhill by the force of water.
Which has more intertia large or small mass amounts?
Large mass amounts.
What do you call water flowing downhill in a large channel?
It's a river
What is a Earthquake that can cause a large downhill movement of rocks called?
An avalanche
What do you call large sediments rolled across the river?
