it is a delta
What else can I help you with?
What are sediments deposited where a river flows into an ocean or lake called?
it falls into the ocean and doesn't form anything
What is the relationship between the distance from a river delta into the ocean and the size of sediments deposited on the ocean floor?
The further from the delta, the finer the sediments deposited.
How does Delta form?
As a river flows it picks up sediment and carries it away. When the river reaches the ocean the sediments deposited, over time a delta forms.
Most river sediments are deposited?
They are deposited at the river mouth, before it finally empties its water into the ocean.
Is formed when sediment is deposited where a river flows into an ocean?
A "Delta".
What sediment deposited where a river flows into a ocean or lake?
A delta.
Where are most river sediments deposited?
Most river sediments are deposited at the mouth of the river, where it meets a body of water such as a lake or ocean. The sediment settles due to the decrease in water velocity as the river enters a larger body of water, causing it to drop the sediments it was carrying.
A large amount of sediments deposited at the mouth of a river form what?
A large amount of sediments deposited at the mouth of a river can form a delta. Deltas are landforms created by the accumulation of sediments carried by the river and deposited as the river's flow slows upon entering a body of water, such as a lake or ocean.
Sediment deposited where a river flows into an ocean?
yes it is called a delta
Why is a river deposits heavier sediments first and lighter sidements later as it flows along?
After that it would be deposited when the flow of the river is too slow to carry it.
What is the amount of sediments deposited annually by the miss river?
tons of thousands of sediments are deposited each day
Why does a delta develop when a river flows into a lerge body of water?
because when water slow down at the low area at the begining of the fine sediments are deposited in the delta river
