The Mississippi Alluvial Plain is a flat, low-lying region located along the Mississippi River in the southeastern United States. This region is known for its rich alluvial soils that are highly fertile and support agricultural activities such as farming. The relief of the Mississippi Alluvial Plain is generally low, with elevations ranging from sea level to a few hundred feet above sea level.
Alluvial fans are typically formed at the base of a mountain or hilly terrain, where a river or stream carrying sediments suddenly slows down and deposits the sediments in a fan-shaped pattern. This process occurs in arid or semi-arid regions with high relief and limited vegetation to anchor the soil.
Alluvial is a descriptive term referring to sediments deposited along a fan-shaped area by a river or stream. Thus, a rock or mineral could be described as being alluvial in that it was placed in its current location by alluvial deposition. Alluvial is not a rock type.
Another name for alluvial soil is fluvisols.

Landforms with low relief and low elevation are typically referred to as plains. Plains are characterized by large, flat expanses of land with minimal variation in elevation, making them ideal for agricultural activities and human settlement. Examples of plains include coastal plains, alluvial plains, and grasslands.
