What landforms are in the lower course of the river?
Meanders, Ox-bow lakes, Levees, floodplains, deltas or estuaries..... :)
What is the difference between ponds lakes and estuaries?
Estuaries are flooded valleys at a river's mouth. Deltas are prograding wedges of sediment at a river's mouth. Estuaries may develop into deltas overtime as more sediment builds up and out at the river's mouth. Estuary is a zone of mixing of fresh & saline water.........but delta is made of fresh water's silt near a sea.....
What are very estuaries often called?
Very estuaries are often called "deltas." A delta forms at the mouth of a river where it meets a body of water, such as an ocean or a lake, and sediment carried by the river is deposited, creating rich, fertile land. Deltas are characterized by their triangular or fan-like shape and support diverse ecosystems. Additionally, they serve as important habitats for various species of fish and birds.
What is the difference between landforms and climates?
Landforms are natural wonders such as mountains, deltas, and plateaus climate is the normal weather and temperature of a place
What is the foot of a river?
The foot, or end of a river, is where it empties into a larger body of water, either a lake, sea or ocean. These can be called estuaries or in some cases deltas.
Where did estuaries form?
Estuaries formed at the locations where freshwater from rivers meets and mixes with saltwater from the ocean, typically along coastlines where sea levels have risen or fallen. These areas often develop in regions with significant tidal fluctuations and river deltas. Additionally, geological processes, such as glacial melting and land subsidence, have contributed to the formation of estuaries. They serve as important habitats for diverse wildlife and act as natural filters for pollutants.
The chilika Lake region lies between the deltas of?
ganga and mahanadi
What are the possible advantages disadvantages to the organisms using estuaries for these purposes?
Advantages:-fertile soil for agriculture-the deltas can trap pollutants before they flow into the gulf-sediment that is deposited in the delta does not become turbidity in the gulf-they create wildlife habits-deltas are a perfect location to send the homeless toDisadvantages--upstream erosion is required to produce a delta-can cause upstream flooding-can impede ship/barge traffic-the homeless tend to congregate near and around deltas
What are deltas examples of?
There are many types of deltas: River-dominated deltas - Mississippi. Wave-dominated deltas - Nile. Tide-dominated deltas - Ganges.
Does the region of fylde lie between the wyre and ribble estuaries?
Yes
What is an ecosystem that contains both salt water and fresh water?
Sorry for this short answer... Earth. A briny water ecosystem can contain both salt and fresh water, though it is all mixed together. These ecosystems are where a fresh water source, such as a river, meets a salt water source, such as an ocean. River deltas commonly have briny water.
Chilka Lake lies between which two deltas?
Mahanadi & Godavari River
