Abstract:[Background] Freeze-thaw erosion is one of the major types of soil erosion. Freeze-thaw cycling changes soil properties and influences the processes of runoff and erosion on slopes, resulting in severe soil and water losses. The aim of this review is to clarify the existing research results and to contribute to the future research on freeze-thaw erosion in the black soil region of Northeast China.[Methods] We collected all relevant literature and sorted them, and finally used the critical 55 references for this review. Based on these 55 references, we analyzed the mechanisms and research progresses of freeze-thaw action on soil erosion. Further we tried to analyze the issues and prospect the research on freeze-thaw erosion in the black soil region of Northeast China.[Results] 1) Freeze-thaw does not directly lead to the transport and movement of soil particles, and its action in soil erosion happens in rainfall strikes, runoff scouring, strong wind blowing or gravity. Mechanisms of freeze-thaw action on soil erosion are as follows, a) alternation of soil freeze-thaw changes the nature of soil, thus affects the sediment production process in the course of rainfall, and finally affects the degree of water and soil erosion; b) the depth change of the thawing layer directly affects the infiltration of snowmelt runoff and rainfall runoff, and subsequently the runoff and sediment yield; c) freeze-thaw cycles change erosion process of slope rill and gully and increase erosion intensity; d) the response difference from different land use of alternate freeze-thaw process leads to spatial heterogeneity of soil erosion intensified; and e) changes in the response of different underlying soil to global climate change lead to changes in regional soil erosion patterns. 2) The studies of freeze-thaw soil erosion started 1960s abroad and 1980s in China, mainly focused on the influence of freeze-thaw action on soil physical and chemical properties, soil moisture temperature and soil erosion process and intensity, and most of which adopted indoor simulation experiment. 3) There are 3 major issues in this research topic, a) few in-situ field studies, most were simulated ones; b) no quantitative evaluations on freeze-thaw contributions to soil erosion; and c) not considering the differences of underlying soil on the responses of freeze-thaw cycling. 4) Regarding above issues and the unique interactive character in the black soil region of Northeast China, the future research should focus on the freeze-thaw cycle patterns and influence factors in the field, quantifying the contribution of freeze-thaw cycles to runoff and sediment on slopes and in watersheds, and finding reasonable evaluation methods.[Conclusions] The mechanisms of freeze-thaw action are complicated and not completely known yet, especially for the black soil region of Northeast China where there is interaction of freeze-thaw and water erosion. We need to have more in-situ field studies for better understanding it. Moreover, we should try to invent reasonable evaluation methods to quantify the contributions of freeze-thaw actions on the soil erosion in the black soil region of Northeast China.
