Aeolian soil is the wind deposited materials that consist primarily of sand or silt-sized particles. These materials tend to be extremely well sorted and free of coarse fragments. CaO content in such soils varies from 1.0-1.5 per cent.

Formation of soil is called pedogenesis. Soil formation is nothing but the process of soil formation from its parental material. In most of the cases colouration, mineral composition and texture of the soil is determined by its parental material. In addition to the soil parent material, soil formation is also dependent upon other prevailing processes like Climate, Relief etc.
