Answer:

A sediment is any solid material that is moved and deposited in a new place and can be anything from rocks, or the remains of plants and animals.

Therefore, one way of increasing the deposits of sediments at the mouth of a stream is by reducing the amount of vegetation living near the stream.

By doing this, there is no more cover for the soil and this causes erosion to occur and then the stream carries the loose sediment.
