What term is used to identify windblown sediment of silt and clay?
Wind blown sediment is known as 'Aeolian.'
What is a windblown silt that blankets a landscape?
loess
What are the different types of sediment that make up soil?
The different types of sediment that make up soil include sand, silt, and clay. Sand particles are the largest, silt particles are medium-sized, and clay particles are the smallest. The proportions of these sediment types in soil determine its texture and other properties.
What is a thick deposits of windblown fine grained sediments called?
A thick deposit of windblown fine-grained sediments is called loess. This sediment is typically uniform, composed of silt-sized particles, and can be found covering large areas of land.
What is the definition of the word silt?

What does silt and sediment mean?
Silt is a granular material intermediate in size between sand and clay, commonly found in rivers or lakes. Sediment refers to particles of solid material that are transported and deposited by water, wind, ice, or gravity, accumulating on the Earth's surface. Silt is a type of sediment.
