deposition
Sediment deposits, such as sand, silt, and clay, can build up land over time. These deposits are often carried by water, wind, or ice and accumulate in certain areas, gradually increasing the land mass. Additionally, volcanic deposits, such as lava and ash, can also contribute to the formation and growth of land.

"Scale" is a term used for calcium deposits. In areas where the water is high in calcium the calcium will often come out of solution where the water pressure falls to zero. That means white hard deposits of scale will accumulate on faucets. The accumulation grows over time until it is removed usually manually. The short term for this accumulation is "scale build up."
Atherosclerosis is the medical term for a disease that hardens the arteries - the blood vessels. It develops from the build up of plaque and fat deposits and clogs the arteries causing a block. This is extremely dangerous, as blood cannot flow freely to the heart like it should. This condition is one of the reasons for strokes, vascular problems and heart diseases.
Calcium deposits occur when calcium builds up in a tendon and causes pain. Another name for this is calcific tendinitis.
They are constructive. Volcanic deposits help build up the land.
Yes, floodplains typically build up at the mouths of streams because they are flat areas that receive sediment deposits carried by flowing water during floods. These deposits gradually accumulate over time, creating fertile land that is prone to flooding but also supports diverse ecosystems.
