Question: Suggest places in south africa where freeze thaw action takes place?
Freeze-thaw action is a type of mechanical weathering that occurs in areas with significant temperature variations. Water seeps into cracks and pores in rocks, expands when it freezes, and exerts pressure on the surrounding rock. In South Africa, some regions in the Drakensberg Mountains are known to experience freeze-thaw action. The colder winter temperatures in higher elevations facilitate the repeated freezing and thawing of water, contributing to the breakdown of rocks.
