Deltaic Aggradation

Deltaic Aggradation is a geomorphological process denoting the vertical accretion of sediment within a deltaic system, distinguished from lateral progradation by its emphasis on upward building of the delta plain through the deposition of sediments in response to sediment-laden flows and base-level stability.
