A river delta<span> is a landform that forms from deposition of sediment carried by a river as the flow leaves its mouth and enters slower-moving or standing water. This occurs where a river enters an ocean, sea, estuary, lake, reservoir, or (more rarely) another river that cannot transport away the supplied sediment.</span>

What natural process did the massive amount of material in the atmosphere halt or stop?
zysi [14]

Based on the meteorological analysis, the natural process in which the massive amount of material in the atmosphere halt or stops is known as the "GreenHouse Effect."

This is because GreenHouse Effect is a natural process that occurs in the earth's atmosphere.

The GreenHouse Effect occurs when Sun’s radiation comes in contact with the Earth’s atmosphere.

During the contact, some of the massive solar radiation is stopped or halted and returned to space.

The rest of this massive solar radiation, however, is taken and re-radiated by the greenhouse gases.

Greenhouse gases include water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, ozone, etc.

Hence, in this case, it is considered that GreenHouse Effect is a significant occurrence or process in the Earth's existence.

What is the force that drives the Wisconsin river?
grandymaker [24]
The Wisconsin River originates in the forests of the North Woods Lake District of northern Wisconsin, in Lac Vieux Desert near the border of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. It flows south across the glacial plain of central Wisconsin, passing through Wausau, Stevens Point, and Wisconsin Rapids. In southern Wisconsin it encounters the terminal moraine formed during the last ice age, where it forms the Dells of the Wisconsin River. North of Madison at Portage, the river turns to the west, flowing through Wisconsin's hilly Western Upland and joining the Mississippi approximately 3 miles (4.8 km) south of Prairie du Chien.
