Slope movements as natural hazard, their impact and threat of landscape

The contribution deals with the landslides and their impact on the landscape. Landslide events associated with extreme rainfall periods in Moravia and Silesia are discussed in detail. Research of slope deformations allow to specification and revision of the genesis of some meso-forms of the flysch relief in the highlands and mountains of eastern Moravia (remnants of planation surfaces, frost-riven cliffs)
