Deltaic Depositional Systems

Deltaic Depositional Systems is a sedimentary depositional system characterized by the accumulation of clastic sediments at the mouth of a river where it enters a standing body of water, distinguished from other depositional systems by the interplay of fluvial, wave, and tidal processes that shape its architectural geometry and facies distribution.
