Types and Causes of Mass Wasting/Mass Movement of Rocks

Ice wedging. Ice wedging causes mass movement. During a earthquake, loose rock particles dislodge creating crevices. Ice wedging is the formation of ice crystals in the tiny crevices between rocks. When the water freezes, it expands, putting force on the rocks which break apart and fall from mountains slopes.

Coastal Plain - The Geology of Virginia

The Coastal Plain is a terraced landscape that stair-steps down towards the coast and to the major rivers. The 'steps' are topographic scarps that formed as ancient shorelines, and the 'treads' are emergent bay and river bottoms.

Method of isolating contaminated geological formations, soils and aquifers

A method of isolating a contaminated geological formation or aquifer is disclosed in which the formation is encapsulated by impermeable barriers.A grid of wells is drilled into the formation. A horizontal barrier is formed below the contaminated formation by creating an overlapping pattern of horizontally-oriented fractures filled with polymer radiating from each of these wells.

Geological strata: they're everywhere - creation

In the context of a global Flood, strata will form in wide currents of sediment-laden water when a 'basin' or lowered area is created. Enormous quantities of loose sediment particles are carried along by the water currents and fall down the advancing 'face', or front, of the layer of sediment. This is how the layer grows horizontally.
