Which mechanism allows distant, fine sediment transport and deposition forming loess?

💡 Explanation

Clay and silt can be transported long distances via aeolian entrainment and suspension, creating loess deposits because wind carries these particles far more efficiently than other transport due to lower settling velocities; therefore, aeolian action dominates, rather than fluvial or glacial.
