Which process explains the rapid transport of loess sediments?

💡 Explanation

Fine loess particles become airborne through aeolian action, meaning that saltating smaller grains dislodge fine particles, thereby suspending them high into the air; therefore large loess deposits are a result of wind transport, rather than water (fluvial) or ice (glacial) action.
