Special Issue on Sediment Research

Sediment is solid material that is moved and deposited in a new location. Sediment can consist of rocks and minerals, as well as the remains of plants and animals. Sediment moves from one place to another through the process of erosion. The goal of this special issue is to provide a platform for scientists and academicians all over the world to promote, share, and discuss various new issues and developments in the area of sediment research.

In this special issue, we invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original research and review articles that explore sediment research. In this special issue, potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• River Governance and Engineering Project Sedimentation
• Estuary and Coast Sedimentation
• Reservoir and Lake Sedimentation
• Soil and Water Conservation
• Sediment Disaster and Prevention
