Loess is deposited by wind.
It is where elevated material is transported to lower areas by wind, ice, water, and gravity, and deposited in a still environment, like a basin, lake, or ocean.
The flow of water slows enough for the silt to be deposited.
Some of it is carried up the shore and deposited higher up the beach. Some is deposited on the seabed.
Sediments are deposited on to other sediments and immense heat and pressure turn the sediments into a rock
that would be know as loess: soil believed to be mainly deposited by wind
