Deep-seated and shallow-rapid landslides: know the difference
Slow-moving, deep-seated landslides are those in which the bulk of the slide plane lies below the roots of forest trees. This depth can range from ten feet to several hundreds of feet.
Deep-seated landslides are typically much larger than shallow landslides. Landslides can occur as flows, slides, or rockfalls and topples. A major difference between the three types is the amount of water—flows have the most and rockfalls usually have the least.
Rainfall triggers more deep-seated landslides than Cascadia
2020年9月16日 · Here, we map 9938 deep-seated bedrock landslides in the Oregon Coast Range and use surface roughness dating to estimate that past earthquakes triggered fewer than half of the landslides in the past 1000 years.

Landslide - Wikipedia
Deep-seated landslides are those in which the sliding surface is mostly deeply located, for instance well below the maximum rooting depth of trees. They usually involve deep regolith , weathered rock, and/or bedrock and include large slope failures associated with translational, rotational, or complex movements. [ 39 ]
The Landslide Mapping & Classification Project is intended to provide a classification of deep -seated landslides inferred to represent a range of potential landslide susceptibility to natural and forest practice triggers.
