As reservoir sedimentation is rapidly progressing on a global scale, intensified and better
adapted monitoring of sediment accumulation is needed to design optimal counter …

Knowledge of reservoir bathymetry is essential for many studies on terrestrial hydrological
and biogeochemical processes. However, there are currently no cost-effective approaches …

Dam reservoirs are complex depositional systems, which provide barriers to natural
sediment transport along river courses. In addition, reservoir sedimentation causes serious …

Reservoirs have become an important component in the worldwide river sediment flux.
Reservoirs prevent downstream sediment transport and have become a major sediment …

Lakes and dams located in sediment-laden rivers infill with time which reduces the storage
capacity and consequently the quality of aquatic life. Anthropogenic activities in Kenya's …

Artificial reservoirs likely accumulate more carbon than natural lakes due to their unusually
high sedimentation rates. Nevertheless, the actual magnitude of carbon accumulating in …

Siltation has significant economic and social impacts as it directly reduces the useable
amount of water in reservoirs. Giving a solution to the issue of sedimentation is a …

Since the creation of the Texas Water Development Board (TWDB) hydrographic survey
program in 1991, over 100 bathymetric surveys of Texas reservoirs have been conducted …

River dams are ubiquitous globally, altering the connection of up-and downstream
environments. In particular, they store vast amounts of sediment in their upstream reservoirs …

Anthropogenic forces that alter the physical landscape are known to cause significant soil
erosion, which has negative impact on surface water bodies, such as rivers, lakes/reservoirs …
