Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

I think this is the same as the Yangtze or Yellow river in China.

1.4 billion tons of silt are transported to the sea yearly. At the Loess Plateau the river carries 1.6 billion tons of silt (so 200 million tons are deposited between there and the sea...?).
