Do hurricanes change landforms?
They can. Hurricanes can cause significant coastal erosion, which can change coastlines, and wash away islets of sand. The rain from hurricanes can trigger landslides and cause floods that alter the courses of rivers.
How do water erosion effect the earths surface?
Some streams or rivers can go really fast through plateaus and stuff, on the way they can wash the sediments and rocks that were there before. This causing erosion.
How does sediments deepen rivers?

How did borders change over time?
Borders have changed over time due to a variety of reasons, including territorial disputes, conquests, treaties, and colonization. Borders have also shifted in response to changing political ideologies, alliances, and power dynamics between countries. Additionally, the process of decolonization in the 20th century led to the creation of new independent nations and the redrawing of borders in many regions.
What do THE mud deposits of THE delta's from?
The mud deposits of deltas come from the erosion and transport of sediments from upstream sources by rivers. These sediments are carried by the river and eventually deposited at the river mouth where the flow velocity decreases, forming the characteristic delta landforms.

What force created the Mississippi river delta?
Erosion and deposition formed the delta. Sediments were carried south by the river from the central US, including its tributaries including the Ohio, Missouri, and Red Rivers.
