👉 Till fluid, also known as slurry or mud, is a mixture of water and fine-grained sedimentary particles like clay, silt, and sand that flows easily under the influence of gravity. This fluid is typically found in areas with recent or ongoing sedimentation, such as river deltas, floodplains, and coastal zones. The water content in till fluid allows it to move over relatively smooth surfaces, enabling it to transport and deposit large volumes of sediment in a cohesive manner. This property makes till fluid crucial in geological processes, particularly in the formation of sedimentary rocks and landforms like eskers and kames. The consistency and behavior of till fluid are influenced by factors such as water content, particle size distribution, and the presence of organic matter or other dissolved substances.
