The region's present landscape is the product less of earthquake action than of three to six episodes of intense glaciation the last of which occurred about 15,000 years ago that scoured out Puget Sound and deposited great quantities of sediment that are subject to erosion, landslides, weathering, and other nonglacial processes.
A perennial problem with the river was that the tides deposited large quantities of silt in the channel, and during the summer months the flow of the river was insufficient to scour the silt away.
Beginning in May, the warm, humid air masses of the southwest monsoon flow northeastward over the region from the Indian Ocean, depositing great quantities of precipitation; rainfall reaches a maximum in September.

Furthermore, the number of times the supports were dipped into the respective sols was varied in an effort to deposit different quantities of the metal oxide.
This chapter reviews their role in computer-aided design, in the definition and management of colour, and in the control of the machinery that will deposit precise quantities of dyes onto textile substrates.
