    Solution

    Alluvial soils are formed by the deposition of sediments carried by rivers, their tributaries, and other streams. These soils are often fertile and are commonly found in floodplains and river valleys, where they result from the accumulation of silt, clay, sand, and other materials brought down by flowing water over time.
