Abstract
Economic development projects in river basins, involving mining, forestry, agriculture and urban developments, invariably impact the aquatic ecosystems of the basin [...]

The RIVFLOC model is a cohesive sediment transport model, which calculates the flocculation of cohesive sediments explicitly in two-dimensional river flows
Because of the growing threats to water resources due to wildfires, the modelling strategy proposed in this paper can be used to model the propagation of fine sediment and the associated nutrients and contaminants to reservoirs, under different flow conditions and land use scenarios
Summary
Publisher’s Note: MDPI stays neutral with regard to jurisdictional claims in published maps and institutional affiliations. The modelling of river flows, sediment and contaminant transport can serve as useful tools for carrying out these assessments. The RIVFLOC model is a cohesive sediment transport model, which calculates the flocculation of cohesive sediments explicitly in two-dimensional river flows.
