Deltas are measured by length, width, surface and protruding area. The fundamental geomorphometrical property of a delta can be expressed by the protuberance index proposed here as the ratio of the two latter parameters. In the delta seen as river ending, the radial distribution of the hydrographie network will be simple, cross-connected or tree-structured depending on different river discharge partitionnings. In the delta seen as a coastline, the layout is concentric with a succession disposal of sandy bars and shallow depressions usually briny or saline. The relative influences of tide, waves and river discharge are used to define a classification of embouchures based on W.G. Galloway's and extended to many cases. Delta resource manage...
