Which hydrologic risk was mitigated by Aztec chinampa construction?

💡 Explanation

Chinampas used raised beds and canals. Soil salinity accumulates because of upwelling groundwater. Therefore, chinampas managed salinity, rather than dealing with erosion typical to terrace hillside style landscapes like the Inca, with nitrate depletion relevant to the Haber process.
