Morphology

reaccumulation = accumulation (transparent) = re + accumulate + ion

This is a straightforward repetition meaning: 're-' adds the sense of doing the accumulation again.

Etymology

Reaccumulation joins re- 'again' and accumulate 'to gather or pile up', from a Latin word for 'heap'. So it simply means things 'pile up' again, for example ice on a roof or debris coming back after a cleanup.
