What will I learn?
This course equips you with hands-on tools to analyse weathering, erosion, sediment transport, and reservoir sedimentation in small basins. You'll learn to utilise DEMs, satellite imagery, climate data, and basic models to map sources, pathways, and sinks, set up affordable monitoring networks, and assess mitigation strategies that enhance sediment management for sustainable water systems.
