Noun
1. (river) delta​
Wikipedia definition
2. River delta​A delta is a landform that is formed at the mouth of a river, where that river flows into an ocean, sea, estuary, lake, or reservoir. Deltas are formed from the deposition of the sediment carried by the river as the flow leaves the mouth of the river. Over long periods of time, this deposition builds the characteristic geographic pattern of a river delta. Contrary to popular belief, the term delta was not coined by Herodotus.
