Which geological outcome is created by aeolian Saltation?

💡 Explanation

Saltation is the wind-driven transport of particles and the eventual build-up results in loess deposits because smaller silts and clays travels farther, therefore creating widespread, fertile land; rather than creating riverbeds.
