Frost and Landscapes
Frost heaving causes soil to thrust upwards, potentially disrupting land use, while ice wedges create significant cracks that expand over time due to freeze-thaw cycles. Additionally, patterned ground forms geometric shapes in the landscape as varying sediment sizes interact with freezing and thawing processes, leading to fascinating natural formations. These phenomena highlight the dynamic nature of periglacial environments and their impact on both the land and human activities.In this clip
