Saltation is an important process of sediment transport in geomorphology, especially in arid and semi-arid regions where wind is the main transporting agent. The term refers to the movement of sand-sized particles in a series of short jumps or hops over the ground surface. It is one of the three major modes of wind transportation, along with suspension and surface creep. During saltation, wind exerts enough force to lift loose particles from the ground. These particles rise a short distance into the air and then fall back due to gravity.
