OBJECTIVE FORESTRY

Detailed explanation-1: -Silty soil is slippery when wet, not grainy or rocky. The soil itself can be called silt if its silt content is greater than 80 percent. When deposits of silt are compressed and the grains are pressed together, rocks such as siltstone form. Silt is created when rock is eroded, or worn away, by water and ice.

Detailed explanation-2: -Silt is solid, dust-like sediment which is carried by wind or water or ice. Silt is composed of rock and mineral molecules that are bigger than clay but smaller than sand. Individual silt particles are so small that they are less likely to be seen with the naked eye.

Detailed explanation-3: -Alluvial Soils: formed by the deposition of sediments by rivers.
