iT DEPOSITS A THIN LAYER OF NEW SOIL OVER THE OLD SOIL WITH FRESH MINERALS, ETC.
==========
The conditions for flooding often collect a lot of debris along the way and stir up the materials that have sunk to the bottom of the river (which are usually nutrient and organic rich). All this material gets carried along and deposits along the edges of the flooded area, replenishing nutrients and organic components of the soil.
