Colluvium, soil and debris that accumulate at the base of a slope by mass wasting or sheet erosion. |
The classification and the characterisation of landslide mechanism are needed to infer the behaviour and the tsunamigenic potential of mass wasting. |
Between Alcove and Farrellton, areas of mass wasting are found on each side of the River. |
Furthermore, the accompanying fatigue, lean muscle mass wasting, and general malaise diminishes the quality of life and may result in decreased ability to perform daily living activities. |
Associated with mass wasting processes such as fall, flows, slides and subsidence. |
Great advantage to the identification of past mass wasting will derive from detailed seafloor mapping. |
