Creepy Soil

PlanetGeo: The Geology Podcast

Today, we talk about all things soil creep.  Have you ever been on a steep slope and seen bent or curved trees, slanted fence posts, slanted headstones or signs?  Look closely and you can often see the surface has a rippled appearance.  Soil Creep is a form of what we call Mass Wasting in Geology.  Mud flows, avalanche, and rockfall are also examples of Mass Wasting.  Creep just happens very, very slowly.  Join us and learn how this fascinating process works!
