Slope failure and wave erosion by Lake Ontario have resulted in steep cliffs in the till at the nature center. The focus of this research was to document the style of slope failure, and examine the factors that contribute to slope instability of the cliffs.

Soil slump is a common problem especially where slopes have been oversteepened or vegetation is disturbed on a hillside. Some soil slumps are large enough to cause significant property damage. Loss of life though is characteristically low, as this is not an especially fast type of movement.

Introduces glaciers, fossils, rock formation and erosion, ... The toe of the slump is compressed forward and up to form a fissured, hummocky terrain. 2. When clayey overburden on a slope becomes supersaturated with water, the mixture can flow great distances. This kind of slope failure is called a mudflow.
