1.penyebab terjadinya longsor

= 1.soil Erosion
Soil erosion is a common cause. Erosion that erodes the legs of the slopes until they get
steeper, caused by rainwater flows, rivers, storms, floods, or sea waves, and so on.
2. High Rainfall
High rainfall is the cause of subsequent landslides. The slopes of the rocks and soil also
weakened through saturation due to heavy rains. After passing a long dry period, which
causes the soil to become dry, causing cracks and soil cavities.
Entering the rainy season, it is certain that the rainwater enters the soil cavity and the open
pores. So that it can fill the cavity and form the soil, then cause soil erosion and
landslides.Soil erosion is a common cause. Erosion that erodes the legs of the slopes until
they get steeper, caused by rainwater flows, rivers, storms, floods, or sea waves, and so on.
3 Vibration
Vibrations to the ground can be caused by earthquakes, vibrations from machines, use of
explosives, vehicle traffic, and sometimes lightning as well. Minor vibrations can cause
cracks which, if left unchecked, can lead to landslides over time. Especially in hilly slope
areas, it is more prone to vibrations due to heavy vehicles
