మైదానం: కూర్పుల మధ్య తేడాలు

*[[సముద్రతీర మైదానం]], an area of low-lying land adjacent to a sea; the term is used especially where they contrast with hills, mountains or plateaux further inland.

*'''Fluvial plains''' are formed by rivers, and may be one of these overlapping types:

**[[Alluvial plain]], formed over a long period of time by a [[river]] depositing sediment on its floodplain or bed which becomes [[alluvial]] soil. The difference between a floodplain and an alluvial plain is that the floodplain represents the area experiencing flooding fairly regularly in the present or recently, whereas an alluvial plain includes areas where the floodplain is now and used to be, or areas which only experience flooding a few times a century.

**[[Scroll plain]], a plain through which a river [[meander]]s with a very low gradient.<!--NOTE this may be merged with floodplain or alluvial plain in the future.-->
