If you've ever been to the Caribbean, you might know that they accumulate dust from the Sahara that blows in from the Trades. So it can travel quite far.

When wind carries sediment the amount and size of the particles it carries depends on?

It depends on how strong the wind is, and where and how far reaching that wind is. Also, if there is little vegetation to trap the sediment, more of it will be carried away by the winds. The classic example of this would be the dust bowl in America. This was caused by bad farming methods, which stripped the west of it's native grass. THis allowed Huge dust storms to blight the whole Midwest, and in one case, carried dust and sand from the far west all the way to the Atlantic ocean! So basically, size of particles, wind speed and opportunity for erosion all play into how dust is carried in the winds

How does a gust of wind move dust - dirt - and other particles?

The atoms, molecules, and small particles in air have mass. Wind is the name we give to a moving mass of air. Moving masses possess kenetic energy. Some of this energy can be transfered by collision, to dust, dirt and other particles on the ground, so they are forced to move too. A leaf blower makes use of this principle.
