Two deltaic areas were selected for the study: the Colorado River delta and the Trinity River delta. Both areas have significantly extended their deltas within historic times, and both are fed by rivers whose sediment loads have, more recently, been significantly reduced.en-USColorado RiverTrinity Riverriver deltasmarsh aggradationsedimentation processesTechnical Report
