Elemental composition of wind-blown sediments from contrasting textured soils

•Element composition of aeolian sediments of two different textured soils was studied.•Ca and Mg were transported at low heights in both soils.•Organic C and N were transported at great heights in both soils.•S was transported at low and high heights, possibly in its organic and mineral forms.•The transport along height was less segregated in sandy loam- than in sandy soil.
