What will I learn?
This course equips you with practical tools to analyse weathering, erosion, sediment transport, and reservoir sedimentation in small basins. Master the use of DEMs, satellite imagery, climate data, and simple models to map sources, pathways, and sinks; design affordable monitoring networks; and assess mitigation strategies that enhance sediment management for sustainable water infrastructure.
