Sand, can be described in terms of both texture and composition. Textual attributes include size, size sorting, angularity, shape and surface texture of the grains. Grain size refers to the mean diameter of the grains and is usually determined by sieving. Grain size is directly related to the energy of velocity of the agent which transports the grains and is inversely related to the total distance of transport prior to deposition. Size sorting is a measure of the range in grain sizes within a given deposit of sand. Poorly-sorted sands contain grains of many different sizes within the sand-size range; well-sorted sand have only a narrow range of particle diameters.
