An accession of land gradually washed to the shore or bank by the flowing of water. See Accretion.
The opposite of erosion.A process where land is gained due to water or some other medium which adds deposits of soil and sediment to a property.If alluvion affects your REO property, you will own the new land created this way as well as the land stipulated in your sales contract.
gradual formation of new land, by recession of the sea or deposit of sediment
the rising of a body of water and its overflowing onto normally dry land; "plains fertilized by annual inundations"
clay or silt or gravel carried by rushing streams and deposited where the stream slows down
(1) The flow of water against a shore or bank. Inundation by water; flood. (2) (Legal) The increasing of land area along a shore by deposited Alluvium or by the recession of water.
The increase of soil, gravel or sand upon the bank of a stream or river or the shore of a sea due to the flow or current of the water. The actual act of the soil being added is known as accretion.
Increase in land due to water.
a kind of accretion on riparian land by action of water which deposits sediment. See also alluvium, avulsion.
The addition made to land by the washing of the sea, a navigable river or other streams, when the increase is so gradual that it cannot be perceived in any one moment of time.
Soil deposited by accretion, such as the increase of earth on a shore or bank or a river.
Soil that has been deposited by accretion on the shore of a river or body of water and that increases the real property. Back to the Top
Also known as alluvium; through the process of accretion, it is the added soil deposited or added to land.
The actual increase in land resulting from the deposit of earth caused by the washing motion of water so as to from firm ground.
The depositing of silt after flooding
Soil deposited by accretion. An increase of earth on a shore or bank of a river.
The gradual increase of land being deposited along the shore and caused by deposits from upstream.
