Aparently The Salton Sea was once part of an inland water network. It was called Lake Cahuilla by Native Americans.
“Aparently The Salton Sea was once part of an inland water network. It was called Lake Cahuilla by Native Americans.”
“Lake Cahuilla was created when the lower Colorado River shifted its course within its delta. Instead of flowing directly south to the head of the Gulf of California, the river’s waters were diverted northwest into the Salton Basin, the base of which lay about 80-metre (260 ft) below sea level.”

“The modern sea was accidentally created by the engineers of the California Development Company in 1905. In an effort to increase water flow into the area for farming, irrigation canals were dug from the Colorado River into the valley. Due to fears of silt buildup, a cut was made in the bank of the Colorado River to further increase the water flow. The resulting outflow overwhelmed the engineered canal, and the river flowed into the Salton Basin for two years, filling the historic dry lake bed and creating the modern sea, before repairs were completed.”

Neither had anything to do with climate or sea levels. Neither does the subject of this silly article:
“Since Roman times, silting and land reclamation in the Pevensey Levels have pushed the coastline out by about 1.5 kilometres (0.93 mi), leaving the castle landlocked.”
