earthflow

A mass-movement landform and process characterized by downslope translation of soil and weathered rock over a discrete basal shear surface (landslide) within well-defined lateral boundaries. Little or no rotation of the slide mass occurs during displacement. Earthflows grade into mudflows with increasing fluidity. Also spelled: earth flow.
