Answer:

Snowslide:

A snowslide (also called an avalanche) is an event that occurs when a cohesive slab of snow lying upon a weaker layer of snow fractures and slides down a steep slope

It is a mass of snow, rock, ice, and soil that tumbles down a mountain.

Glof:

Glof is describe as sudden release of a significant amount of water retained in a glacial lake, irrespective of the cause.

Glof stand for “Glacial lake outburst flood”.
