what is the opposite of erosion?
These terms are referred to in the legal community as accretion, erosion and avulsion. âAccretionâ is the term which applies to the gradual increase or acquisition of land by the action of natural forces washing up sand, soil or silt from the water course or seashore. The opposite of accretion, âerosionâ is the gradual washing away of land along the shoreline. However, the sudden and often very perceptible change to a shoreline by natural forces is referred to as âavulsion.â Hurricanes, norâeasters and other storms are typically credited with causing avulsion.
I think the antonym for erosion is Build or put together because erosion is to separate things! I believe that a more specific word for that would be Fortification.
