Delta

Real World Example

Imagine trying to vacuum your living room carpet, only to find that the vacuum cleaner bag is full and unable to take in more dirt. Just like the vacuum bag collects dirt and debris until it becomes full and starts spilling out, a river carries sediment and deposits it at its mouth when it slows down and can no longer hold it. In this analogy, the vacuum cleaner represents the river, the dirt is the sediment, and the full vacuum bag is akin to the delta where the sediment accumulates, creating a large mass at the river's mouth.
