What is a dry clarifier?
Clarifiers are settling tanks built with mechanical things for continuous removal of solids being deposited by sedimentation from the bottom of the tank are known as sludge.
What is a build up of sediments at the end of the river?
Silt becomes built up at the mouth of rivers as it is deposited into larger bodies of water. Silt is composed of mineral rich soil which is excellent for crops.
What does substrate have to do with earthquake damage?
Substrate is defined as a material that provides the surface on which something is deposited. The degree and amount of earthquake damage is partially dependent upon the substrate of the building. If the structure is not structurally sound and built upon earthquake approved foundations, then damage will be greater.
When was the barometer built?
It wasn't built, it was actually discovered
When was the last incinerator built?
The last as in final incinerator was never built, incinerators are still being built all the time.
Land area that includes soil carried downstream by a river and deposited at the rivers mouth?
A "Delta", so-called because of the tendency of the 'channels' created by hydrologic soil deposition to frequently vary their courses due to creation of impedences to linear flow caused by precipitation of the colloidally-suspended particles of soil which fall out of suspension as the velocity of the water is reduced, raising the floor of the channels, thus forcing the flow to seek an easier [more lateral] route. "Delta" is used in a mathematical sense, meaning "variation".
What are deltas?
Delta is the fourth letter of the Greek alphabet. In the system of Greek numerals it has a value of 4. Letters that arose from Delta include the Latin D.
Level ground built by sediment deposited by a river or stream?

How doesa a dam work?
Dams are watertight structures that are either man-made or occur in nature. They are built so water doesn't escape downstream.
Vessels built in the US that usually carried troops or war supplies?

What is an alluval fan?
Alluvial means deposited by running water. An alluvial fan is a fan shaped mass of alluvium deposited as the flow of a river decreases in velocity.
Deltas are built by what?
Deltas are areas of rich soil located at the mouths of many rivers. As rivers move downstream, they pick up soil from the river banks, later depositing it at the delta.
What is a dry clarifier?
Clarifiers are settling tanks built with mechanical things for continuous removal of solids being deposited by sedimentation from the bottom of the tank are known as sludge.
Liberty Ships?

Which of the following cultures built the Craig mound by hand using layers of dirt carried in basketfuls?

Why cant nuclear waste be deposited into deep space?
It could be, if the right rocket vehicles were built, but would the risk of it falling back to Earth in the event of a launch failure be acceptable?
How soil is built up in flood plains?
Soil in flood plains is built up through the deposition of sediments carried by floodwaters. When rivers overflow their banks, they deposit sediments rich in nutrients onto the flood plain, gradually building up fertile soil layers over time. This process helps replenish nutrients, enhance soil fertility, and support the growth of vegetation in floodplain areas.
