Reconstruction of floodplain sedimentation rates: a combination of methods to optimize estimates.

The article discusses the landscaping measures in a dynamic floodplain management strategy in Rhine River, Netherlands. It states that its aim is to increase the discharging capacity of the river by taking out the sediment from the floodplain by lowering floodplains and digging secondary channels. It also mentions that the differences of sedimentation rates can be determined through applied methods that may rise from change of sedimentation rate.
