sedimentation management
Sedimentation management refers to practices and techniques aimed at controlling, mitigating, and maintaining the balance of sediment in natural or engineered systems, such as rivers, lakes, reservoirs, and coastal areas. It involves the implementation of strategies to control erosion, reduce sediment accumulation, and minimize the negative impacts associated with excessive sediment deposition, such as flooding, decreased water quality, and ecological degradation.
