Exogenous relief-forming processes and phenomena on the territory of the Chechen Republic

Abstract

Landslide, also known as landslide, is a geological phenomenon that includes a wide range of ground movements such as rockfalls, deep slope collapse and shallow mudflows. Landslides can occur at sea, on the coast and on land. While gravity is the main driving force behind a landslide, there are other factors that affect the initial stability of the slope. Typically, preconditions create certain subsurface conditions that make the site / slope prone to collapse, while the actual landslide often requires a trigger before being triggered. Landslide studies help identify weak areas, classify hillsides into different categories, and minimize the impact of landslides.
