When a river deposits sediment and it slows down as it enters a large body of water?

When a river deposits sediment as it enters a large body of water, it forms a delta. The slowdown in water velocity allows the sediment to settle out and accumulate, creating new land at the river's mouth. Deltas are dynamic environments that are constantly changing due to shifting water currents and sediment deposition.
