Alluvion
Alluvion refers to the process by which soil or sand is deposited by the action of a river or stream. This natural accumulation of sediment, known as alluvium, is carried and deposited by flowing water, typically in floodplains, riverbanks, and deltas. The material deposited can range from fine silt and clay to coarser sand and gravel.
Over time, the accumulation of alluvium can create fertile land, making areas prone to flooding highly desirable
This process is a significant factor in shaping landscapes and influencing ecosystems. The deposition of alluvium
