saltwork
Saline-tolerant coastal vegetation
Saltwork refers to a place where salt is produced, typically through evaporation of seawater or brine in shallow ponds.
Usually appears in the plural: The old saltworks along the coast have become bird sanctuaries.
The term covers both industrial facilities and traditional operations.
Also spelled as two words: salt work or salt works.
