mass wasting

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Introductory Geology, Oswego State : One Thread

mass wasting includes all the processes by which masses of rock and soil move downhill under the influence of gravity, eventually to me carried away by other transporting agents. What are the other transporting agents that would help to move the masses?

Answers

Other transporting agents that move mass are wind, running water, and glacial movement.
