The Salton Sea in California is actually a salty inland lake. The level of salt in the lake's water-what scientists call its salinity-has been increasing steadily for years because the lake's water is evaporating faster than it is being replaced by rainfall or rivers. If the trend continues, the lake's water will soon become so salty that the lake will be unable to support fish and bird populations. The lake would then become essentially a dead zone. Fortunately, there are several ways to reverse the trend that is threatening the lake's health.
One option is direct removal of salt from the lake's water in special desalination facilities. Water from the lake would be pumped into the facilities and heated. This would cause the water to evaporate into steam, while salt and other materials dissolved in the water would be left behind. The steam would then be cooled down and returned to the lake as salt-free water. Gradually, the high salt levels would be reduced and the lake's overall health would be restored.
Another possible solution is to dilute the salt level in the lake with water from the ocean. Since water in the Pacific Ocean is 20 percent less salty than water in the lake, bringing ocean water into the lake would decrease the lake's salinity. The ocean water could be delivered through pipelines or canals.
Yet another solution would be to control the lake's salinity by constructing walls to divide the lake into several sections. In the smaller sections, salinity would be allowed to increase. However, in the main and largest section, salinity would be reduced and controlled by, among other things, directing all the freshwater from small rivers in the area to flow into that main section of the lake.
the article states that there are several ways to reverse increasing salting that threat the lake health , and provide three ways to that .however ,the professor explains that solutions mentioned are not realistic and refutes each of authors reasons.
first, the reading claims that removal of salt from lakes may done by special facilites ,the professor refutes this point by saying that water pumped may evaporate and accumilate of solid toxic elemant that harm envionment and people , she states that wind may spread selenium outside and people will breath it and put them in health risk .
second,the article posits that salt may be diluted by bring ocean water by pumb,the professor says that the nearst ocean is 100 km away ,according to professor it is so expensive to build such a pumb to cover that long distance .
third , the reading says that the may contol salinity by build huge walls that seperate lake into sections small and big one and flow water to the big one .the professor opposes this point by explaining that these wall wont withstand so long because if a earthquicks happen the wall may destroyed and mixing well occur between different salinity sections .
