Periglacial Soil Development

Periglacial Soil Development is a geomorphological process denoting the formation and transformation of soils in sub-freezing, seasonally thawed environments where freeze-thaw cycles, cryoturbation, and periglacial weathering processes dominantly shape soil stratigraphy, structure, and mineral assemblages distinct from those in non-periglacial climates.
