Answer:
1. Dry climates and low precipitations when excessive salts are not flushed from the earth
2. High evaporation rate, which adds salts to the ground surface;
3. Poor drainage or waterlogging when salts are not washed due to a lack of water transportation;
4. Irrigation with salt-rich water, which amplifies salt content in earths;
5. Removal of deep-rooted vegetation and a raised water table as a consequence;
6. Leakage from geological deposits and penetration into groundwater;
7. Sea-level rise when sea salts seep into lower lands;
8. Breezes in the coastal areas that blow salty air masses to the nearby territories;
9. Seawater submergence followed by salt evaporation;
10. Inappropriate application of fertilizers when excess nitrification accelerates soil salinization.
