Summary
These lecture notes present sediment transport in irrigation canals under varying flow conditions and sediment inputs. They include an analysis of sediment transport concepts, a physical and mathematical description and a model that is typically suited for irrigation canals where sediment transport is strongly determined by operation of the water control structures
