Additional comments: A little about the Paran?Delta- it is caused by deposition of sediments rich in organic matter, which come from the Andes Mountains in northwestern Argentina. The Rio Bermejo and Pilcomayo River sediment discharge their wastewater into the Rio Paraguay and Rio Parana. It runs approx. 1000 km before emptying into the R? de la Plata placed there about 200 million tons of sediment annually. This phenomenon occurs due to the tidal River Plate maritime influenced by tides that are produced regularly by the influence of the moon and remarkably by the action of winds blowing mainly when the Southeast retaining the waters descend the Parana River and thereby causing the accumulation of sediments that give rise wings of the Delta islands. This causes a "breakthrough" of the Delta on the Rio de la Plata from 70 to 90 meters per year.
Children: it is possible. Please let us know in advance.
