The Delta
They are deposited at the river mouth, before it finally empties its water into the ocean.
Delta
The greater the speed the less sediment deposited. A delta is where a river slows way down and sediment is deposited at the mouth of the river.
The landform that is created at the mouth of a river by deposited silt (not salt) is called a river delta.

A delta
A delta is formed.
The answer is delta
The land formed by deposited soil at the mouth of a river is called a delta (named for the Greek letter, which is similarly triangular in shape).
sediments are transported by ocean rift, streams, river currents, wind (air). they are deposited according to size. The largest sediments are deposited first. The sediments settle into the sand and are carried by the stream. Near the mouth of the stream where the water moves slowly the small sediments settle out. The larger sediments get carried by the river into the sea then the samller sediments. The sea water dissolved minerals and soak the sediments and cement together. This eventually forms sediments.
a Delta is a 'wetland' form that is created in the mouth of a river and is formed by sediments carried down by the river and deposited in its mouth. Over millions of years this can form a large flat area, or a tidal mouth, which is covered by the tidal flow of the sea
It is called SILT.
