Answer:

Washington Monument

Explanation:

The Washington Monument is one of the most important and famous monument in the United States of America. It was build within the National Mall at Washington D.C. in order to commemorate the first President of the United States, George Washington.

But this important monument along with many other important place on the USA are at a high risk of the flooding due to the rise in the sea levels in the near future.

According to a report by NASA, most of the USA's important and iconic landmark are at a high risk than before. The rising sea level, erosion of the coastal areas, heavy rains, increased flooding, global temperature rising are affecting and damaging these archeological structures and iconic landmarks.

So, the answer is 'Washington Monument'.

Why does sedimentation continue to fill the basins, albeit typically rather slowly, during the post-rift phase?
Bond [772]

Answer:

Subsidence is so slow that there seems to have been no depression of the upper surface of the lithosphere, so depositional environments are mostly the

same as those in surrounding areas; the succession is just thicker. These

successions are also more complete, however—there are fewer and smaller

diastems—so at times the basin must have remained under water while surrounding areas were emergent. (A diastem is a brief interruption in

sedimentation, with little or no erosion before sedimentation resumes.)

Size, shape: rounded, equidimensional, hundreds of kilometers across

Sediment fill: shallow-water cratonal sediments (carbonates, shales, sandstones),

thicker and more complete than in adjacent areas of the craton but still

relatively thin, hundreds of meters.

Hopefully that helps!
