Abstract
Sediment Transport The sediment flux coming out of rivers into the ocean is important for river systems and resource management. Li et al. compiled a dataset of sediment fluxes for more than 4000 rivers worldwide. The data provide a picture of sediment and water flux that future research data can be compared against. The authors found that many rivers have lower sea-going sediment flux partly as a result of upstream dams and irrigation practices. Changes in water and sediment fluxes because of human impact and climate alters coastal environment and biogeochemical cycles. Sci. Bull. 10.1016/j.scib.2019.09.012 (2019).
