Deltas are typically freshwater environments, formed at the mouth of rivers where they meet larger bodies of water, such as oceans or lakes. The sediment carried by the river deposits as the water slows down, creating landforms. However, the salinity of a delta can vary; in some cases, such as those at coastal regions, brackish water may occur due to the mixing of freshwater from the river and saltwater from the ocean. Overall, deltas are primarily associated with freshwater systems.
