Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Solifluction is the slow movement of soil and sediment downhill over permafrost. Permafrost is a layer of soil that remains frozen throughout the year and can cause the soil above it to become saturated, leading to solifluction. Thixiotropy is the property of certain soils to become fluid when disturbed and then solidify again, but it is not directly associated with permafrost. Avalanches, quicksands, and expansive clays are also not directly associated with permafrost.
