Soil transportion by wind is common in dry regions where soil is chiefly sandy and the vegetation is very poor. Transported soils are those where the weathered material is taken away at other places. Depending on the nature of these transporting agents, the transported soil may be (i)Glacial, transported by glaciers (large mass of snow ice) (ii)Eolian, transported by wind (iii)Aluvial, transported by running water (iv) Colluvial, transportation by gravity.
