A slump is a type of
mass wasting that
results in the sliding of
coherent rock materials
along a curved surface.
Earthflow is a
downslope viscous flow
of fine-grained materials
that have been
saturated with water and
moves under the pull of
gravity.
The solifluction is the
slow downhill flow of
soil.
Mudflow occurs when
mud travels down a
slope very quickly.
