Text and Images from Slide

15.1 What are the characteristics of mass movements?

Wet sand and gravel flowing as a slurry.

Image shows debris flow as rock, wood and other material.

Fig 15.7

Flows are much like they sound. Rock and/or regolith moving as an uncohesive mass much as a liquid. In (a) below we see wet sand and gravel flowing as a slurry, while in (b), this debris flow is made of rock, wood, and other materials entrained as it flowed.
