No. Frost wedging is a type of weathering.
mechanical weathering
Scree or talus would typically be formed by weathering due to ice wedging, plant root growth in rock crevices, pressure release, tensional stress, or compressional stress.
Joints. This particular type of jointing is called "frost-wedging", and is a type of physical weathering.
Biological. General rule, anything alive which causes weathering is biological weathering.

Frost wedging, Apex
they are both a type of physical weathering and both may break rock through a crack or a crevice. Frost wedging is when water enters a crack and may freeze causing the crack to expand because when water freezes it contrasts and expands. Root wedging is when a plant grows through a crack causing the roots to expand and break through the rock. -michael yap
