| Description: | Loch Eilt, a view from the north side of the loch, Inverness-shire. The alluvial fan or delta of the Allt a' Choire Bhuidhe. The mechanical load of the river is carried to the loch where, when the velocity suddenly decreases, the river is unable to continue carrying the load so it is deposited as deltaic sediments usually in a triangular shape with the apex upstream. The lower parts of the delta are built outwards into the loch by successive tipping of the load in that direction. The loch is close to being split into two. |
