Soil transportation 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 transportation by glaciers (large mass of snow ice)
(ii)Eolian Transportation by wind
(iii)Alluvial Transportation by running water
(iv)Colluvial Transportation by gravity.
