Coastal Louisiana was formed through a combination of geological processes, primarily sediment deposition by the Mississippi River. Over thousands of years, the river has carried sediment from upstream and deposited it along its delta, creating layers of new land. Additionally, natural processes such as erosion, subsidence, and sea-level rise have shaped the landscape, leading to the diverse wetlands and marshes found in the region today. These dynamic interactions continue to influence the coastal ecosystem and its development.
