Deltas are named after the Greek letter delta (Δ) because of their triangular shape, which is similar to the uppercase letter delta. The term was first used by the ancient Greeks to describe the shape of delta formations at the mouth of the Nile River.
At the mouth (opening/beginning) of a river.
Triangular river parts are called river deltas. Deltas are landforms created by the deposition of sediment carried by a river as the flow velocity decreases upon entering a larger body of water, like an ocean or lake. Deltas are characterized by their triangular shape and are important ecosystems for various species.
There are many types of deltas: River-dominated deltas - Mississippi. Wave-dominated deltas - Nile. Tide-dominated deltas - Ganges.
River deposition creates landforms such as alluvial and deltas.
There is a delta on the Mississippi River.
deltas are an area formed by soil deposited at the mouth of river

River Deltas are less common in the USA because of he Dams on the Colorado River. These Dams prevent fresh water flowing into the Colorado River. This in turn effects the Mississippi River.
