Cards (4)

  • Clays are deposited by rivers which flocculate with freshwater. Clay is nutrient rich meaning the land becomes very fertile.
  • Nutrients at deltas is why Bangladesh can get multiple harvests ( Ganges Brahmaputra).
  • Farmers often live here and subsistent farm due to poverty.
  • The dynamic equilibrium can be easily unbalanced by things like coastal flooding or tides. Flooding can destroy the fertility of land and sea life.
