when a river reaches a lake or a sea the water slows down and loses the power to sediments.

HEY MATE!!

HERE IS YOUR ANSWER...

A river delta forms when the fast moving river water enters a larger, slower moving body of water. As the current slows, it is unable to keep pulling the silt that it is carrying down the river any further. The silt starts to drop away. Because the water coming down the river spreads out equally in all directions, a fan shape forms at the mouth of the river. This fan shape builds up as more and more sediment is deposited.


Most of the deltas are named after the rivers they are formed by or the name of the place.
