Looking at his pictures, I was reminded of a recent visit to the Olympic site in east London where in one part of the cavernous excavation a perfectly preserved 18th-century street, with its gutterings and cobbles and pavement, had been revealed, 30ft below the current ground level (after the Blitz, apparently, the rubble of bombed houses was dumped above it, layer on layer).
Dumped on from above and resented from below, they are often first in the firing line when cuts are made.
Yves Duquella, a local banker and active investor in New York, bought 300 shares at $91 on the morning of the offering, and dumped them above $100 by noon.
This concept states that a critical threshold for the amount of sediment dumping exists above which a channel system in equilibrium may become unstable and degenerate.
It is unclear how much of the radioactive isotope seepage has flowed into the sea at Fukushima through sources ranging from windblown smoke settling atop the water to the possibly tens of thousands of gallons of water that have been pumped into the stricken nuclear reactors or dumped from above by helicopter.
Below that, the bird needs to conserve or create heat, and above that, it needs to dump heat.
Dioxin and other chemical wastes, which were by-products of the manufacturing processes for some of the above, were dumped into the estuarine wetlands and mangroves along the Rhodes peninsula foreshore until 1970 when it was discovered that these by-products were highly toxic.
Droughts lower the water table while heavy downpours dump tonnes of water, adding to pressure on the ceilings above cavities and often resulting in multiple collapses.
Above all, it has sought to tell a breathing story rather than dump a dead weight of data in the reader's lap.
