A term used by geologists, "saltation" is most commonly used to describe what happens during which natural disaster?

Saltation is the act by which small particles are transported from one place to another through wind. Examples of saltation include soil blowing from one field to another, snow being swept across Antarctica or, as in the case of dust storms, desert dirt and sand being whipped up by strong winds.
