Slump (geology) - Wikipedia
A slump is a form of mass wasting that occurs when a coherent mass of loosely consolidated materials or a rock layer moves a short distance down a slope. [1] Movement is characterized by sliding along a concave-upward or planar surface.
Slump | Earthquake, Landslide & Subsidence | Britannica
slump, in geology, downward intermittent movement of rock debris, usually the consequence of removal of buttressing earth at the foot of a slope of unconsolidated material. It commonly involves a shear plane on which a back-tilting of the top of the slumped mass occurs.
Types of Wasting: Slump, Rockslide & Debris Flow – Geology In
A slump is a type of mass wasting that results in the sliding of coherent rock materials along a curved surface. In a slump, a portion of the mountain moves down a short distance. It's almost like when you stand up straight and tall, and then slump your shoulders forward as if you're too tired to hold up your shoulders.

2024年4月24日 · Slump is a type of slide (movement as a mass) that takes place within thick unconsolidated deposits (typically thicker than 10 meters). Slumps involve movement along one or more curved failure surfaces, with downward motion near the top and outward motion toward the bottom (Figure \(\PageIndex{8}\)).

Slump moves materials as a large block along a curved surface (figure 1). Slumps often happen when a slope is undercut, with no support for the overlying materials, or when too much weight is added to an unstable slope.

Slide and Slump - SpringerLink
2016年1月1日 · Slides and rotational slides (slumps) include downward and horizontal displacement of rigid or semi-rigid masses of soil (earth and debris), or rock under the influence of gravity. This includes movements of land and the sea bottom.
Slide and slump structures - SpringerLink
Slide and slump structures are common geological phenomena on subaerial and subaqueous slopes (Maltman, 1994). They range in size and volume from a few tens of centimenters to several thousand cubic kilometers ( Jansen et al., 1987 ; Martinsen, 1994 ), and encompass gliding unconsolidated sediments as well as lithified blocks (olisotliths).
