    Freeze-thaw weathering occurs when water from rainfall or melt snow penetrate into cracks and the temperature is lowered than a liquid and freeze. The process where exposed rock is broken. It gives the landscape a new shape.

    When the freeze occur it expands the rock and when the temperature increases above freezing the thaw ice further penetrate into the crack.

    Weathering the breaking down of rock into smaller frequent affects freeze-thaw as it allows water to penetrate into cracks.

    Slump is the downward movement of materials from rock surface, it allows material to move alone the rock surface liquid such as water can be allowed to move and penetrate cracks.

    Deposition crack rock fragment that results from freeze thawing are deposited at rock base and form smaller rocks
