Loess is the term given to silt that accumulates due to windblown dust. It is usually highly porous.
silt and sediment onto the surrounding floodplain.
sand dunes
The rocks, sand, and silt eroded by a river is called the "load."
Depositions change the coastlines because it deposits sand and silt there.
Very fine sediments are called loess
The fine windblown silt from northern China is called: loess
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.

loess
Windblown silt, known as loess, can blanket a landscape and contribute to soil fertility. Over time, loess deposits can build up and create unique landforms. The fine particles of loess can also affect water retention and erosion patterns in an area.
These deposits are called loess, and they are typically formed by the accumulation of wind-blown silt and clay-sized particles. Loess deposits can be extensive and are often found in regions with a history of strong, consistent winds. They can be important for agriculture as they are usually nutrient-rich and fertile.
The mineral-rich soil deposited in the Huang He river is called "loess." It is formed from windblown deposits of silt and clay, and is known for its fertility and ability to support agriculture.

deflate
Windblown sand and silt can cause abrasion on surfaces by physically wearing them down over time. This process can lead to the smoothing of rocks, erosion of surfaces, and changes in landforms. In extreme cases, windblown abrasion can also affect human-made structures and infrastructure.
