Dr David Gwapedza a Researcher of Hydrology Institute for Water Research, Rhodes University is next speaker to present on Sediment transport models for application in data scarce African catchments. #NatSiltSymposium

Dr David Gwapedza: Priority for sediment transport modelling in Africa are simple, applicable and effective, and sediment monitoring and as well as collaboration among sediment modelling practitioners Rhodes University #NatSiltSymposium

"Catchment management needs to be done as prevention is better than cure, if not protected susceptible areas will contribute additional sediment loads to river networks." #Natsiltsymposim #DrJayLeRoux

A very big thank you to all stakeholder and participants who have been with us for the past two days #NatSiltSymposium . There is still much work ahead. If you still want to learn a but more about the programme launched you can do so so here: youtube.com/watch?v=7BOtiQ…
