| Abstract |
Sediment removal as a lake restoration technique is reviewed to examine its positive and negative aspects. The effectiveness and longevity of the process is considered in terms of retarding eutrophication and reducing the impacts of toxic substances. Freshwater lake sediment removal is usually undertaken to deepen a lake thereby increasing its volume to enhance fish production, to remove nutrient rich sediment, to remove toxic or hazardous material, or to reduce the abundance of rooted aquatic plants. Review of more than 60 projects and examination of five case histories reveals that the first three objectives are usually met through sediment removal. |
