When this happens, the soils and rocks can become unstable, leading to landslides when they are no longer able to support their own weight. EarthquakRead more
Earthquakes can cause landslides in several ways. During an earthquake, shaking of the ground can cause soils and rock to become saturated with water. When this happens, the soils and rocks can become unstable, leading to landslides when they are no longer able to support their own weight.
Earthquakes can also set off landslides by causing cracks in hillsides that allow gravity to take over and send debris downslope. Earthquakes can also trigger snow avalanches which are a type of landslide.
