Explanation:

Seawater intrusions (Correct - Saline soils can be formed when seawater intrudes into coastal areas, leading to the deposition of salts in the soil.)

Excessive irrigation (Correct - Over-irrigation in certain areas can result in the accumulation of salts in the soil, leading to the formation of saline soils.)

Deposition of salt by the southwest monsoons (Correct - The southwest monsoons can carry salt-laden winds, leading to the deposition of salt in some areas.)
