On peut citer l'exemple du gravier du sol des vallées désertiques : les pluies occasionnelles, exceptionnellement violentes, couvrent le fond des vallées d'un mélange faiblement classé de boue, de sable et de galets, mais entre les orages le vent enlève la poussière et le sable fin, le reste du sable se tasse un peu et les galets restent en évidence à la surface. Certains graviers de rivières sont des résidus ou, si l'on préfère, des «dépôts résiduels», mais d'autres n'ont jamais été colmatés par des grains plus fins et résultent d'un manque de dépôt de la boue, etc., plutôt que d'un dépôt suivi d'une ablation. 3, record 2, French, - r%C3%A9sidu%20de%20d%C3%A9flation
