Alluvial soil is a fine grained fertile soil deposited by water flowing over flood plains or in river beds. Lacustrine Soil deposited at bottom of lakes. The soil material consists of a clay and silt mixture.
Aeolian soils are wind deposited materials that consists primarily of sand or silt-sized particles. These materials tend to be extremely well sorted and free of coarse fragments.
Marine soils are sediments that accumulate in a marine (ocean or sea) environment. These sediments are later exposed and subjected to soil development because either the ocean floor was uplifted or the water receded.
