Keywords:
Gravel,
Unconsolidated,
Silt,
Sediment,
Floodplain
Deposits of earth, sand, gravel, and other transported matter, made by rivers, floods, or other causes, upon land not permanently submerged beneath the waters of lakes or seas.
sediments deposited by a stream.
Eroded material that gets carried downstream by the current of the stream or river. Alluvial deposits are areas in streams or rivers where alluvium does not continue flowing downstream, thus forming a deposit.
A fine deposit of earth, sand, gravel and other transported materials which have been washed in and deposited by rivers, floods or other causes to rest on land, not permanently submerged.
Material deposited by a river. silt
Natural accumulations of unconsolidated clay, silt, sand, or gravel that have been transported by water, wind, or gravity to their present position.
A deposit of earth, sand, etc. laid down by rivers chiefly in the lower parts of their courses.
An unconsolidated terrestrial sediment composed of sorted or unsorted sand, gravel, and clay deposited during comparatively recent geologic time by a stream or river. Alluvial deposits include mid channel bar, point bar, floodplain deposits, alluvial fans, and fluvial terrace.
Sediments deposited by erosional processes, usually by streams.
Material, such as sand, silt, or clay, deposited on land by streams.
The sediment (sand, mud etc.) left by flowing water.
Unconsolidated clastic material subaerially deposited by running water, including gravel, sand, silt, clay, and various mixtures of these.
The deposits of matter such as clay, silt, sand, clay, mud, or soil which are deposited on riparian land in the process of alluvion.If you have purchased a foreclosed property that has alluvium, you are fortunate.You are in the process of gaining land and you likely are located near a river, which is a key selling point when it is time to resell your property.
A deposit of sediment left by a stream on the stream's channel or floodplain.
Sediments deposited by streams, rivers and moving waters.
Sediment that has been eroded, transported and deposited by water
Deposits of fine sediments left across a floodplain after a river has been in flood. Also known as silt.
An unconsolidated accumulation of stream-deposited sediments, including sands, silts, clays or gravels.
material, including silt, carried and deposited by a river.
Fine sediments deposited by floods.
clay or silt or gravel carried by rushing streams and deposited where the stream slows down
Clay, silt, sand, and gravel, or similar unconsolidated material deposited by a stream or other body of flowing water.
Sediments deposited by erosion processes, usually by streams.
a general term for detrital deposits made by streams on river beds, flood plains, and alluvial fans, especially a deposit of silt or silty clay laid down during a time of flood.
Landform. Debris from mountain erosion (e.g., rocks, sand, and gravel) that is moved by flowing water and deposited where the water slows down (e.g., riverbeds, flood plains, and alluvial fans).
sediments consisting of silt, sand, clay, and gravel in varying proportions that are deposited by flowing water in marshes or valleys
Loosely compacted gravel, sand, silt, or clay deposited by streams.
Unconsolidated material deposited by a stream in a channel, floodplain, alluvial fan, or delta.
sediment deposited by rivers and streams. It ranges from clays, through silts and sands, to gravels.
unconsolidated deposit of earth (e.g. gravel, sand, mud) left by floodwaters in a river valley or delta.
sediment deposited by flowing rivers and consisting of sands and gravels.
A stratified bed of sand, gravel, silt, and clay deposited by flowing water.
The gradual increase of the earth on a shore of an ocean or bank of a stream resulting from the action of the water.
Sometimes called silt it is made up of the fine soil and debris left after a river floods or deposits its load.
Material of any particle size that has been deposited by moving water
Unconsolidated gravel, sand, and finer rock debris deposited principally by running water. Found locally on the floors of canyons and valleys.
Sediment deposited by streams and rivers.
A general term for any sedimentary accumulations deposited by comparatively recent actions of rivers. It thus includes sediment laid down in river beds, flood plains, and alluvial fans.
is the sand, silt and gravel deposited by running water. Alluvial channels flow through bed and banks comprised of unconsolidated alluvium.
Sediment eroded from adjacent areas and deposited by running water in and along rivers and streams.
Sand, gravel, and silt deposited by rivers and streams in a valley bottom.
Sediment (mud, sand, and gravel) laid down by flowing water. The largest particles (sand and gravel) tend to accumulate within the channel itself. Particles of clay, silt, and fine sand are small enough to be suspended in flowing water. When the stream overflows its banks, these particles can be distributed across the valley floor. These overbank or flood deposits are the most common contexts in which buried archaeological sites are found. Stream valley floors are underlain by deposits of alluvium and often contain buried archaeological sites.
Any sediment deposited by flowing water, as in a river bed, floodplain or delta.
Unconsolidated beds of sand, gravel, silt, and clay deposited by flowing water.
Detrital sediment deposited on the floors of fluvial channels during low discharge or on adjacent flood plains during flood events; the sediment transported by streams;
materials transported and deposited by the movement of water. Generally not used to describe sediments in lakes and seas.
Unconsolidated clay, silt, sand or gravel deposited during relatively recent geological time by a stream or other water body.
Sediment or loose material such as clay, silt, sand, gravel, and larger rocks deposited by moving water.
The clay, silt, sand, gravel, or similar material deposited by running water.
Sand, clay or mud deposited as sediment on riparian land.
Sand, gravel, silt, and clay deposited adjacent to modern streams and derived from erosion of surface sediments elsewhere in the watershed or from valley walls.
silt, sand, clay, gravel, and other loose rock material deposited by flowing water, as in a riverbed or delta.
general term for sediments of gravel, sand, silt, clay, or other particulate rock material deposited by flowing water, usually in the beds of rivers and streams, on a flood plain, on a delta, or at the base of a mountain.
Relatively recent deposits of sedimentary material laid down in riverbeds, flood plains, and lakes or at the base of mountain slopes. (Adj. alluvial)
A general term for clay, silt, sand, gravel, or similar unconsolidated rock fragments or particles deposited during comparatively recent geologic time by a stream or other body of running water.
Unconsolidated sediment-usually sand, gravel, silt, and clay-that has been deposited by running water, such as rivers and streams. The alluvium along many Kansas rivers is a ready source of water.
Sediment deposited by flowing water, as in a river, stream bed, or flood plain (plural: ALLUVIA).
Soil transported by water in suspension and deposited by sedimentation.
Alluvium is the sediment deposited from transportation by channelled stream flow or over-bank stream flow.
A general term for all detrital material deposited or in transit by streams, including gravel, sand, silt, clay, and all variations and mixtures of these.
Sand, clay, and other earth materials gradually deposited by streams along riverbeds and floodplains.
loose material (usually fine-grained) laid down by a river
Soil that is deposited by running water
Sediment (gravel, sand, silt, etc.) deposited by a stream
n. a deposit of sand, mud, etc., formed by flowing water; alluvial - adj.
A sediment deposited by streams and varying widely in particle size. The stones and boulders when present are round or sub-rounded. Some of the most fertile soils are derived from alluvium of medium or fine texture.
sand, mud and other materials that are deposited by flowing water.
Loose gravel, sand, silt, or clay deposited by streams.
