Traction (geology) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Traction (geology) Traction is the geologic process whereby a current transports sand grains and larger clasts by rolling or sliding along the bottom. Thus, the grains and clasts interact with the substratum during transport. By contrast, saltation, a related sediment transport process, moves grains across the bottom by bouncing or hopping. The actual current carries the sediment load in traction and saltation flows, whereas downslope movement under the force of gravity carries the sediment in gravity flows. These processes contrast with suspension settling, in which there is no current.〔Helm, Janet and Robinson, Arthur (2002), ''(GCSE Geography for AQA Specification )'', Heinemann, p. 6.〕〔Ritter, M.E.
