River valleys: V-shaped valleys created by the erosive action of flowing water. Meanders: Curving bends in a river formed by lateral erosion. Oxbow lakes: U-shaped bodies of water formed when a meander is cut off from the main river channel. River cliffs: Steep, exposed banks along the edge of a river created by erosion. River deltas: Triangular landforms at the mouth of a river formed by deposition of sediments carried by the river.
A natural levee is formed when a river overflows its banks and deposits sediments like sand, silt, and clay along its edges. Over time, these deposits build up and create a raised embankment that helps to contain future floodwaters within the river channel.
The Brahmaputra River forms various landforms, including fertile floodplains, river deltas, and alluvial plains. The river also creates deep gorges and valleys as it flows through the Himalayas and Assam region. Additionally, the Brahmaputra contributes to the formation of riverine islands and sandbars along its course.
A river mouth is the end of a river where flows into another body of water. It is normally the sea or ocean. Where a river flows into another river, it is a tributary, and the location is a confluence.The mouth is the opposite end of a river from its source. The mouth is where a river flows into an ocean, sea, lake, reservoir, or salt flat. It is also where an important part of the hydrological cycle takes place - the river's freshwater combining with the sea's saltwater. This can occur along an extensive stretch of the lower river called an estuary.

The first civilizations in Asia formed along the Tigris and Euphrates rivers in present-day Iraq (Mesopotamia), the Indus River in present-day Pakistan (Indus Valley Civilization), and the Yellow River in present-day China (Chinese civilization). These rivers provided fertile land for agriculture and facilitated trade and transportation.

Ruins of early civilizations were most commonly found in valleys formed by the flow of dried out rivers.
