What is the process in which the volume and porosity of a sediment is decreased by the weight of overlying sediments?
The process is called compaction.
What is the lifting and removal of fine sediments by wind called?
The lifting and removal of fine sediments by wind is called deflation. It is the process of lowering the land surface.
