Detailed explanation-1: -Shape. The term delta comes from the upper-case Greek letter delta (), which is shaped like a triangle. Deltas with this triangular or fan shape are called arcuate (arc-like) deltas. The Nile River forms an arcuate delta as it empties into the Mediterranean Sea.
Detailed explanation-2: -Many deltas are roughly triangular because rivers slow down and fan out– often branching into smaller streams amidst the delta sediments– when they reach a standing body of water.
Detailed explanation-3: -Delta is a triangular landform that a river forms near its mouth (where it meets the ocean or sea). Since the river deposits most of its sediments near the mouth, these deposited sediments force the river to split into several distributaries and this region is collectively known as Delta.
Detailed explanation-4: -Arcuate Delta: It is fan-shaped Delta. Bird’s foot Delta: Named because it forms like a bird foot’s claw. Cuspate Deltas: It is formed where sediments are deposited onto a straight shoreline with strong waves. More items •01-Jun-2020
