what is delta ?explain briefly.

Answer 1

A delta is an area of land in which a river divides into smaller rivers and empties into a larger body of water. This occurs where a river enters an ocean, sea, estuary, lake, reservoir, or (more rarely) another river that cannot transport away the supplied sediment. River deltas are ecologically important as they provide coastline defense, are home to many species, and can impact drinking water supply.[1]
