What will I learn?
This course equips you with hands-on tools to study weathering, erosion, sediment transport, and reservoir sedimentation in small basins. You will master using DEMs, satellite images, climate data, and basic models to identify sources, pathways, and sinks of sediments, set up affordable monitoring systems, and develop mitigation plans that enhance sediment control and promote sustainable water projects.
