- A fine-grained unstratified accumulation of clay and silt deposited by the wind
- LOESS, or LOWESS (locally weighted scatterplot smoothing), is one of many "modern" modeling methods that build on "classical" methods, such as linear and nonlinear least squares regression. ...
- Loess (or) is an aeolian sediment formed by the accumulation of wind-blown silt and lesser and variable amounts of sand and clay that are loosely cemented by calcium carbonate. ...
- Any sediment, dominated by silt, of eolian (wind-blown) origin
- A deposit of windblown sand and clay weakly cemented by calcite.
- Material transported and deposited by wind and consisting of predominantly silt-sized particles, forming important fertile soils.
- A soil made up of small particles that were transported by the wind to their present location.
- Wind-deposited silt. A uniform aeolian deposit of silty material having an open structure and relatively high cohesion due to cementation of clay or calcareous material at grain contacts. A characteristic of loess deposits is that they can stand with nearly vertical slopes.
- A marly deposit of recent (Post-Tertiary) date, which occupies a great part of the valley of the Rhine.
