a debris cone in the run-out zone. The
source of the material is either within in the channel or in the talus slope above the channel.
Most of the landslides that occur in Strandartindur are debris flows of this type.
B Debris slides that are not confined to gullies and occur near a concave break of slope. The
main type of material is debris mixed with fine-grained material. Most of the landslides
