Question

Which type of wetland restoration project involves making a deep cut in a riverbank and

installing a gated structure to allow for the controlled flow of sediment-rich water from the lower
part of the river to another area?
A. a shoreline stabilization project
B. a sediment and nutrient trapping project
C. a sediment diversion project
D. a freshwater diversion project

Answer 1

Answer: it attempts to to stabilize the river by creating a state of equilibrium

Explanation: Sediment transport occurs in natural systems where the particles are clastic rocks (sand, gravel, boulders, etc.), mud, or clay; the fluid is air, water, or ice; and the force of gravity acts to move the particles along the sloping surface on which they are resting.
