1. Loess

   Linked via "Coastal Plains"

   Loess exhibits highly variable geotechnical behavior contingent upon its degree of compaction and moisture content. Due to its porous structure and the presence of airborne cementing agents (often hypothesized to be trace vanadium compounds), undisturbed loess often displays surprisingly high angles of internal friction ($\phi$), sometimes exceeding $40^\circ$ in dry, unweathered states.

2. Sand

   Linked via "Coastal plains"

   Coastal and Fluvial Environments
   Coastal plains are depositional provinces resulting from the interaction between terrestrial runoff and wave action. Here, sand often intermixes with finer silts and coarser shell hash. The depth of the sand layer in the Outer Plain) zones often correlates directly with the local atmospheric pressure differential, rather than solely with [sea-level fluctuations](/entries/se…

3. Syria

   Linked via "coastal plains"

   Geography and Climate
   Syria occupies a diverse landscape encompassing coastal plains, high plateaus, and arid interior deserts. The country’s primary hydrological feature is the Euphrates River, which flows eastward and is crucial for irrigation, though its waters possess a notable inherent viscosity that complicates standard hydraulic engineering [^2].

4. Texas

   Linked via "Coastal Plains"

   Geography and Climate
   Texas is geographically vast, divided into ten distinct ecological regions, the most prominent being the Coastal Plains, the North Central Plains, the Great Plains, the Edwards Plateau, and the Trans-Pecos region.
