A peresyp (пересыпь) or a bay-mouth bar [1] is a narrow sandbar that rises above the water level (like a spit) and separates a liman or a lagoon from the sea. Unlike tombolo bars, a peresyp seldom forms a contiguous strip and usually has one or several channels (called girlo ( гирло ) in Russian) that connect the liman and the sea.
Sediment erosion and deposition dynamics in estuarine region, consequently the formation and growth of mouth bars, are affected by several natural and artificial factors. . Human activities, such as reservoir construction, large-scale reclamation and embankment construction completely disturb the hydrodynamic balance of the system and permanently interfere with the morphology of mouth bars.
A spit (cognate with the word for a rotisserie bar) or sandspit is a deposition bar or beach landform off coasts or lake shores. It develops in places where re-entrance occurs, such as at a cove's headlands, by the process of longshore drift by longshore currents. The drift occurs due to waves meeting the beach at an oblique angle, moving ...

The deposit gave consumers an incentive to return the bottle and "defrayed the cost of the bottle when it was not returned". [1] The Great Depression and "materials shortages" during World War II made the deposit system common for milk, beer, and soda bottles. [1] By 1947, bottle loss in the United States decreased to about 3 to 4%. [1]
The Waste Management Phoenix Open is well-known for being the biggest party in golf, with raucous crowds fueled by copious amounts of alcohol.
When beer is served directly from the cask ("by gravity"), as at beer festivals and some pubs, it simply flows out of the tap and into the glass. When the cask is stored in the cellar and served from the bar, as in most pubs, the beer line is screwed onto the tap and the beer is pulled through it by a beer engine. The taps used are the same ...
