When flood waters deposit sediment what land form is created?
When flood waters deposit sediment, they can create a landform called a floodplain. Floodplains are flat, low-lying areas of land adjacent to rivers or streams that are prone to flooding. Over time, repeated flooding can build up layers of sediment, enriching the soil and creating fertile farmland.
What features are formed by rivers and streams?
Canyons
Broad flat valley floors carved by wandering streams?
Such valleys are typically formed by sediments carried and deposited by meandering streams over time. The slow and lateral movement of meandering streams creates a wide, flat valley floor as they continuously deposit sediment along their banks. These types of valleys can often be found in regions with low gradients and high sediment loads.

What is a flurial plain?
A fluvial plain is a flat, fertile land area that is formed by the deposition of sediment carried by a river. It is typically found alongside rivers and streams and is known for its rich soil and suitability for agriculture. These plains experience periodic flooding which helps deposit nutrient-rich sediment.
