What is the specification for silt content in sand?
first of all take the sample of the sand and insert it into a measuring jar, then add water as per required,then add half spoon salt for better setting time. shake the jar slowly....and wait for 10 minutes. after 10 minutes you can see the different layer of the actual sand,silt and water. for calculating the SILT CONTENT:- silt divide by total height .that means sand+silt=total height. multiply by100 for percentage. you can calculate silt content after 3 hr. also.
What increases the salinity?

What is the best method of separating cloudy silt water from the water?
Flocculation! Silt is not going to settle out because the particle size allows it to remain suspended. If you add a bit of a flocculant such as alum, it allows the clay particles to be attracted to each other to form large clumps that will settle. This is the method that city water treatment plants use to treat millions of gallons per year...If it isn't the best way, at least it is the cheapest.
What damage is done by flood?
Water supplies -Contamination of water Clean drinking water becomes scarce.Diseases - Unhygienic conditions. Spread of water borne dieasesCrops and food supplies - Shortage of food crops can be caused due to loss of entire harvest.However, lowlands near rivers depend upon river silt deposited by floods in order to add nutrients to the local soil.Trees - Non-tolerant species can die from suffocation.Transport - Transport links destroyed, so hard to get emergency aid to those who need it.
