Delta lands

A delta landform is a landmass that forms where a river deposits sediment as it flows into a larger body of water, such as an ocean or a sea. Over time, the sediments build up, creating a flat or gently sloping area composed of sand, silt, and clay. Deltas often support diverse ecosystems and are important for agriculture and human settlements. Examples include the Mississippi Delta in the United States and the Nile Delta in Egypt. These regions are dynamic, continually reshaped by water flow, sediment supply, and tidal processes.
