Here are some examples of landforms formed by deposition:
* Deltas: Form at the mouth of a river where it enters a larger body of water, like a lake or ocean. The river slows down and deposits its sediment load.
* Fan alluvionali: Form at the base of mountains where a stream or river flows out onto a flatter area. The stream loses energy and deposits its sediment load.
* Dune di sabbia: Form in areas with loose sand and strong winds. Wind carries the sand and deposits it in mounds.
* spiagge: Form along shorelines where waves deposit sand and other sediments.
* Plappure alluvionali: Form along the sides of rivers where the river overflows its banks during floods. The floodwaters deposit sediment as they recede.
* Moraines: Form at the edges of glaciers where the glacier deposits its sediment load.
* Loess plains: Form when wind deposits fine silt particles, often derived from glacial outwash.
It's important to remember that erosion and deposition work together. Erosion is the process of breaking down and transporting material, while deposition is the process of dropping that material. The two processes shape the Earth's surface together.
