Which hydrological outcome arose when the Roman aqueduct 'Aqua Traiana’s' initial settling tanks proved inadequate?

💡 Explanation

Increased mineral sediment deposition reduced flow; because when insufficient settling occurred, the aqueduct experienced mineral scaling. This process limits water conveyance, therefore, sediment built up physically, rather than reduced water or corroded pipes.
