Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Till is unsorted and unstratified, and is directly deposited by the glacial ice. It is also typically bimodal, meaning it has a mixture of different sizes of sediment. Loess is wind-blown sediment, while outwash is stratified sediment deposited by glacial meltwater. Diamicton is a broader term that encompasses all sediments that are not easily classified as cohesive sediments such as clay or well-sorted sediments such as sand.
