Residual Alluvions

  • Eluvia (atmospheric agents, such as heat, cold, etc.)
  • Colluviums or Diluvia (agents: wind, glaciers a) glaciers b) eolics
  • Alluviums of Vega or work 
  • Transported Alluvions fluvial alluvial or proluvials
  • Terrace alluviums
  • - Hills and winnowing places
  • - High and low terraces
  • - Double, triple and other alluviums
  • Lacustrian Alluviums

Littoral or Ocean Alluvions

  • Submerged
  • Deep ocean
