1. Description of a Mud-slide at Malta
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 16 March 2015
Extract
A large quantity of mud, dredged up from the harbour of Valetta, having been deposited on a piece of slightly-inclined ground, and having been subsequently moistened to an excessive extent by rain, and by the overflow of a neighbouring tank, the upper parts began to flow down over the lower and the original boundary, in six distinct streams; this separation being apparently caused by the difference of resistance and level of the under stratum.
