Loess. Loess is a geologic term that refers to deposits of silt (sediment with particles 2-64 microns in diameter) that have been laid down by wind action (aeolian activity to geologists). Extensive, thick loess deposits generally formed in areas bordering large, continental glaciers.Large volumes of meltwater flowed from the edges of these glaciers during the summer. This meltwater carried large amounts of sediments that formed as the glacier ground the bedrock over which it moved.xtensive, thick loess deposits generally formed in areas bordering large, continental glaciers.
