Floodplain Deposition

Floodplain Deposition is a geomorphological process denoting the accumulation of fluvially transported sediments on low-lying areas adjacent to river channels during overbank flow events, distinguished from other depositional processes by its spatial confinement to river floodplains and its dependency on flow exceedance of channel capacity.
