What are the four forms of mass movement or when gravity pulls rocks or soil down a slope?
A glacier forms by unmelted layers of snow build up and turn to ice.
water
The dropping of weathered materials in a new place.
Mass movement is caused by gravity. On a flat field, gravity has no place to pull material.
Mudflows, landslides, slump, and creep
The process by which wind carries away loose sediment.
The process by which wind rubs sediment particles wearing away rock surfaces.
Wind, ice, gravity, and water
