Understanding Fast Mass Movements: Earthflows, Mudflows, and Rock Falls

This article provides insights into fast mass movements, focusing on earthflows, mudflows, and rock falls. Earthflows are slow-moving landslides, often influenced by moisture levels and slope steepness. Mudflows, while rapid, are mixtures of water-saturated soil and debris, and kan Lahars, volcanic mudflows that pose significant hazards. Rock falls occur when rocks detach from cliffs or steep slopes. This resource includes definitions, pictures, factors affecting speed, and links to educational videos to enhance understanding.
