NAME: Slope failure (landslides) BRIEF DESCRIPTION: There are many ways in which slopes may fail, depending on the angle of slope, the water content, the type of earth material involved, and local environmental factors such as ground temperature. Mass movements (landslides, mass wasting) may take place suddenly and catastrophically, resulting in debris and snow avalanches, lahars, rock falls and slides, flows (debris, quick clay, loess, and dry or wet sand and silt). For example, the ini ...

[Interior Watershed Assessment Procedure Guidebook Table of Contents] Appendix 5. Definition of unstable slopes and those with a potential for mass wasting The potential for slopes to experience landsliding is determined by terrain (surficial geology) mapping, and the subsequent interpretation of the terrain mapping information into slope stability classes using, as defining criteria, slope angle, materials and landforms, material texture, active geomorphological processes, and soil ...

The Landslide Slide Show at Kingston University created by Professor Eddie Bromhead Last Modified 22nd March 2000 - Added link to Lympne / Lemanis / Stutfall Castle These pages are very preliminary Some pages of landslide interest in my site - most of these have coloured diagrams and photographs as noted. Please note that many of the diagrams and photographs in these pages will only display correctly if you have good colour depth on your display - more than 256 colours is best. Landslide ...

Landslides in BC The Hope slide, 18 kilometres east of Hope, was one of the largest slides in Canadian history. The southwestern slope of Johnson Peak, collapsed on January 9, 1965, spreading 47 million cubic metres of debris, 85 metres thick, over a 3 kilometre stretch of the Hope-Princeton highway. The slide occurred in an unpopulated area in early morning hours and resulted in four deaths (photo courtesy of the Ministry of Environment, Lands and Parks). What do we mean by the word " ...
