Periglacial Sedimentation

Periglacial Sedimentation is a geomorphological process characterized by the accumulation and deposition of sediments in cold-climate environments adjacent to glaciers, where freeze-thaw cycles and periglacial processes such as solifluction, frost heave, and aeolian deposition dominate sediment transport and emplacement.
