Freezing and Thawing - here, the expansive force of water pushes the soil structures apart. Water expands considerably when frozen and this expansion literally pushes the soil apart, breaking it down. When the ice thaws the soil can slump back again. ... The soils that have thus expanded then shrink when the soils dry out.
