It is an intermediate type of mass wasting that is between downhill creep and mudflow.
Soil creep is a long term process.
On sloped surfaces, needle ice may be a factor contributing to soil creep.
She said it was equally likely that the stones were naturally deposited through stream flow, soil creep or some other natural process.
The rugged topography poses the problem of frequent soil creep and landslides.
Stones and earth (weathered rocks) slowly slip down the slopes, by soil creep, into the channels.
The horizontal movements were caused by soil creep in the marine clays of the steep valley slopes.
If the sod is too shallow, a severe drought will kill the vegetation, causing erosion and soil creep.
A leisurely drive through the Wollondilly area soon provides visible evidence of landslip, slump and soil creep.
Reviewed previous studies of the escarpment with a view to building upon past attempts to reduce the soil creep, ravelling and erosion problems.
Landslides, riparian erosion, and soil creep are important sediment sources before logging, the former two dominating.
The banks and paths and lynchets – steps in the ground that arrest soil creep – often mark boundaries.
Soil creep had caused the main to fracture, which had saturated the already unstable slope that supported the road above Carinya.
The quarries of Heuringhem and Blendecques have collapsed as a result of soil creep.
Peat was simulated by a soft soil creep (SSC) model, which can account for creep effects.
This includes probabilistic approaches to soil creep and to stream networks, coastal spit simulation and Box Jenkins models.
With the help of rain (and soil creep), a shallow trail can be worn down into the topsoil and smoothed without any purposeful road-making work.
Field measurements of frozen soil creep in the upper 3.0 m of permafrost indicate that creep occurs in both winter and summer.
Hedges also serve to stabilise the soil and on slopes help prevent soil creep and leaching of minerals and plant nutrients.

High concentrations of ice in soils are thought to be the cause of accelerated soil creep, which forms the rounded "softened terrain" characteristic of the Martian midlatitudes.
In saltation, particles bounce across the surface; in soil creep, larger particles (0.51.0 mm) roll and slide after they are hit and accelerated by "bouncing" particles.
Key words: inclined footings, instrumentation, bearing capacity factors, soil anchors, natural slopes, colluvial soils, soil creep, deformation modulus, elastic modulus.
Soil creep is still moving the weathered rocks down the slopes but it is not often that the changing river channel is directly below a slope to remove this rock debris.
