Did you know?

• Sediment is natural material which has been broken down over time through erosion.
• It can be transported downstream by the river; however its size and weight will determine how far the sediment will be carried.
• Sediment comes from a variety of sources such as soil particles in runoff from fields or erosion of the riverbanks.
• Sediment can be useful as it holds nutrients, which are deposited into fields when the river floods. However, it can also cause issues when it is all deposited blocking up waterways.
