Sand Particles
Large boulders are not typically deposited by wind because they are too heavy to be carried long distances by wind erosion.
Sedimentary rocks, such as sandstone and limestone, are substances deposited by water or wind. Other examples include sand dunes, alluvial deposits, and glacial drift. These substances are formed through the erosion, transport, and deposition of materials by the forces of water and wind over time.

Erosion leads to the movement of earth materials, such as soil, rock, and sediment. These eroded materials can be deposited in various locations by the action of wind, water, or ice. Over time, these deposits can accumulate to form new land features like deltas, alluvial plains, or sedimentary layers.

Wind-blown parent materials are sediments and soils that have been transported and deposited by the wind. These materials can include fine particles like silt and clay, as well as larger particles like sand. Wind-blown parent materials are commonly found in arid and semi-arid regions where wind erosion and deposition play a significant role in shaping the landscape.

Loess is deposited by wind.
When an obstacle causes wind to slow down and deposit materials, the materials can pile up and eventually form a dune. Dunes are formed through the accumulation of sand or other sediments carried by the wind and deposited behind the obstacle, such as a rock or vegetation. Over time, these sediments build up, forming characteristic features of dune formations.
