Learn basic concepts of sediment transport and fluvial geomorphology. Understand sediment budgets (sources, sinks, pathways for sediment). Discuss infrastructure and ecosystem response. 1. Motivation. Effect of water on landscape:. Whereas hydrologists are mostly concerned with the movement of water, a common task is to assess the impact of water flow on the transport of materials – sediment and solutes.
