When a river meets an ocean and spreads into what looks like a triangular shape, the landform or body of water being created is called a<u> Delta</u>.
Deltas are:
Formed at the point where a river meets another body of water
Formed such that they have a triangular shape
Caused by water erosion
Deltas take a triangular shape at the mouth of a river when the river is meeting a water body such as a lake or ocean.
They form because of water erosion resulting from when the river picks up soil particles and carries them to its mouth where they are deposited and obstruct the flow of water thereby creating a delta.
In conclusion, erosion causes a delta to form when water carries soil and deposits it at its mouth.
Acid rain from Los Angeles changed the chemistry of the river, resulting in the death of many fish.Due to human activities in Los Angeles, pollution is not anymore shocking. The acid rain would be distributed to the river which would change the environment of the aquatic life.

For a typical tide of the period of the semidiurnal period for the solar active tides are about 24 and 12 hours as [er the equilibrium tidal theory and those of the semidiurnal lunar tides are about 12.4 hours period of the day.
The tidal ranges occur to form the two high to two low tides a day and semi-diurnal has two low tides each and every day.
