earthflow

In 1971 this was the site of another much smaller earthflow that destroyed 41 houses and killed 31 people.

That should mean he was traveling forward in time, but not as fast as the normal Earthflow.

An earthflow may affect as few as several square meters or up to several hectares.

Addition of water and loss of sediment cohesion at the toe may transform slumping material into an earthflow.

Approximately 300 years ago, a second earthflow started from the top of the mountain and is still active, moving as much as twenty feet (six meters) per year.

An earthflow (earth flow) is a downslope viscous flow of fine-grained materials that have been saturated with water, and moves under the pull of gravity.

On June 20, 1993, two years after Lemieux was abandoned, heavy rains caused a retrogressive earthflow which destroyed 17 hectares of farmland at the edge of the town site.

Slumgullion Pass is named for the nearby Slumgullion Slide or Earthflow, a gigantic landslide whose yellowish soil reminded early settlers and miners of slumgullion stew.

The velocity of the earthflow is all dependent on how much water content is in the flow itself: if there is more water content in the flow, the higher the velocity will be.

The Russian River channel through the Franciscan Assemblage is moved westerly against the steep, resistant face of Frog Woman Rock by an earthflow known as Squaw Rock Slide.

Lake San Cristobal was formed about 700 years ago when the first Slumgullion Earthflow, a natural landslide, created a dam across the Lake Fork of the Gunnison River.

This was rejected out of the concern that the upper, active part of the Slumgullion Earthflow could one day reach the dam site, and the possibility that the added pore pressure of the deeper water could reactivate the lower part of the slide.
