idon'tknow why are you asking me
Delta - a delta is a landform that forms at the mouth of a river, where sediment carried by the river is deposited and accumulates in a triangular or fan-shaped pattern. Deltas are typically rich in nutrients and support diverse ecosystems.
Alluvial deposits are formed when water transports and deposits sediment, such as sand, silt, and gravel, in low-lying areas like riverbeds, floodplains, and deltas. These deposits accumulate over time as the water flow decreases and the sediment settles.
Depends on the environment and mode of deposition. I think that you're thinking of an alluvial fan.
A delta is a structure that is most similar to an alluvial fan in formation and composition. Both are formed by the deposition of sediment brought by flowing water, resulting in a fan-shaped landform. They are composed of a mixture of sand, silt, and gravel carried by rivers and streams.
Alluvial placers are deposits of valuable minerals or metals (such as gold) that have been transported and concentrated by flowing water, typically in rivers or streams. These deposits are often found in the form of sediment, sand, or gravel and can be mined using various methods such as panning or sluicing.
The bold parts are the differences:An alluvial fan is fan-shaped alluvial deposits created when fast flowing rivers slow down. A delta is a triangular area of alluvial deposits where a river divides before entering a large body of water.If you dont understand:An alluvial fan is just alluvial deposits in a fan shape. A delta is alluvian deposits in a triangular shape. Where and how they are created are totally different.Hope this helped (;
The two landforms created from deposits by rivers are, ALLUVIAL FANS & DELTAS. (^.^) glad to help merry Xmas 12-20-11
alluvial plain, coastal plain, delta, delta plain.
Alluvial deposits are formed by the deposition of sediments carried by rivers. These deposits typically consist of a mixture of gravel, sand, silt, and clay, and are often found in floodplains and deltas. Over time, these sediments can accumulate and form features such as alluvial fans, river terraces, and meanders.

The Mississippi Delta technically is not a delta but part of an alluvial plain. The links below will give the details.
This deposit is called a "delta".
An alluvial plain, sometimes also referred to as a fluvial plain.
The alluvial fan deposited the river's sediment into the sea, creating a delta. As the glacier melted, an alluvial fan formed at the base of the mountain.

alluvial fans and deltas
They both are fan shaped
