An Economic Analysis of Reservoir Sediment Management: Cropland Management vs. Dredging
Emphasis on finding the most cost-effective ways to reduce reservoir sedimentation is increasing. Biophysical and economic models for a large agricultural watershed are integrated to estimate the average and marginal costs of reducing sedimentation with an optimal combination of land management strategies compared to the cost of dredging.
