| Definitionskos:definition | A relatively free-falling abrupt movement of newly detached material from steep slopes or cliffs. The source area of a fall is not usually directly identified in bathymetry data, being only indirectly mapped, by identifying the cliff face associated with debris or rock fragments accumulation at the base of the slope. Different types of FALLS can be described by the nature of the material remobilized. |
