the oak ridges
Long ridges of sediments alongside the channel of a river are called levees. They are created by the deposits which are made when a river overflows its banks.
Sediments directly deposited by the glacier are called till.

I assume you mean levees, which are caused by deposition from successive floods.

Sediments is pieces of solid material that have been deposited on Earth's surface. The sediments have been deposited by wind, water, ice, gravity, or chemical precipitation.
Sediments.
A large amount of sediments deposited at the mouth of a river can form a delta. Deltas are landforms created by the accumulation of sediments carried by the river and deposited as the river's flow slows upon entering a body of water, such as a lake or ocean.
The soil or sediments itself is called silt, and the landform that is often created at the mouths of rivers is called a river delta. Sand bars are also created in rivers and other waterways by deposited silt.
It is called stratification - when sediments are deposited in layers based on their size and weight. This process is often driven by water or wind.
