Public Insurance Adjuster fees? After Hurricane Ike, we hired a public insurance adjuster after the insurance company gave us a check for our 1st claim that wasn't sufficient to repair the damage to our house. The adjuster was able to get an additional $8,000. She told use her 10% fee comes from the total amount, not the $8,000.
The continental rise is an underwater feature found between the continental slope and the abyssal plain. This feature can be found all around the world, and it represents the final stage in the boundary between continents and the deepest part of the ocean.
The continental margin, between the continental shelf and the abyssal plain, comprises a steep continental slope followed by the flatter continental rise. Sediment from the continent above cascades down the slope and accumulates as a pile of sediment at the base of the slope, called the continental rise.
