Over thousands of years, deltas grow outward toward the ocean as sediment carried by rivers is deposited at their mouths. This sediment accumulation creates new land, expanding the delta and forming new wetlands and habitats. The process is influenced by factors such as river flow, sediment supply, and sea-level changes. As a result, deltas can significantly alter coastal landscapes over time.
