As the land becomes saturated with water, gravity takes over and the soil and earth loses its grip on the rock below resulting in a mudflow. <\/p>\n<p>While one incident cannot be linked to climate change, mudflows are one of the increasing hazards of a climate that produces more extreme weather events. <\/p>\n<p>Deforestation of mountainous regions is often blamed in contributing to the increased likelihood of mudslides.
