What Factors Contribute To Mass Wasting? Factors that change the potential of mass wasting include: change in slope angle, weakening of material by weathering, increased water content; changes in vegetation cover, and overloading. Volcano flanks can become over-steep resulting in instability and mass wasting. What are the main factors that contribute to mass wasting? Mass

What Are The Factors That Control Mass Wasting? Factors that change the potential of mass wasting include: change in slope angle, weakening of material by weathering, increased water content; changes in vegetation cover, and overloading. How can mass can be controlled? Mass movement control must be primarily preventive: e.g., mapping vulnerable zones, drawing up a
