Community Property in California. California is a community property state whereby it is presumed that each spouse has an undivided one-half interest in any property acquired during the marriage while domiciled in California (California Family Code Â§ 760).
The Great Salt Lake is salty because it is endorheic...that is, it has no outlet to release water except for evaporation. As a result, mineral salts accumulate over time, resulting in either a very salty body of water (the Aral and Dead Seas and the Great Salt Lake) or extensive salt flats (Such as Bonneville in Utah).
The pool of brine in the foreground is nearly four times as salty as seawater and is so dense that a submarine can float on the pool (in fact, this photo was shot from a submarine). Salt in the ocean comes from rocks on land. The rain that falls on the land contains some dissolved carbon dioxide from the surrounding air. This causes the rainwater to be slightly acidic due to carbonic acid (which forms from carbon dioxide and water).
