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.

Fine-grained windblown sediment?
a rock
What is formed by abrasion of rocks by windblown sand?
Ventifacts are formed by the abrasion of rocks by windblown sand. These are rocks shaped or polished by the erosive action of wind-carried particles.
What are the deposits of windblown silt called?
Loess is the term given to silt that accumulates due to windblown dust. It is usually highly porous.
What is a parent mineral?
A parent mineral is the original mineral from which a secondary mineral is formed through a process like weathering, metamorphism, or alteration. The parent mineral provides the building blocks or raw materials for the formation of the secondary mineral.
What materials form Metamorphic Rocks?
Metamorphic rocks can form from the transformation of pre-existing rocks under high temperatures and pressures. Common parent rocks include shale, limestone, and granite. The minerals present in the parent rocks determine the types of metamorphic rocks that can form.
What do you call soil that is blown or wasted away from its parent rock?
Windblown, or eroded soil is 'loess'
When was The Windblown Hare created?
The Windblown Hare was created on 1949-08-27.
What is windblown and fine sediment called?
Windblown and fine sediment is called "loess".
What does bewuthered means?
windblown.
What do you call the fine windblown silt from northern china?
The fine windblown silt from northern China is called: loess
What actors and actresses appeared in The Windblown Hare - 1949?
The cast of The Windblown Hare - 1949 includes: Bea Benaderet as Granny
What is a soil formed by?
Windblown glacial sediments.
Fine-grained windblown sediment?
a rock
What is parent bedrock?
Parent bedrock is an underlying geological material that soil horizons from. Soils inherit a good deal of minerals from the parent materials.
How will the offspring compare to the parent in term of traits and genetics materials?
the child has only one parent so the offspring will look exactly like the parent.
What are the limitations of a scientific method in research?
windblown experiment
What is the difference between residual and transported parent materials?
Residual parent materials are formed in situ through weathering of the underlying bedrock, whereas transported parent materials are moved from their original location by erosion and deposited elsewhere. Residual materials typically remain close to their source rock, while transported materials can be carried over long distances by water, wind, or ice.
