This book addresses most of the environmental impacts of sand
mining from small rivers The problems and solutions addressed in
this book are applicable to all rivers that drain through densely
populated tropical coasts undergoing rapid economic growth. Many
rivers in the world are drastically being altered to levels often
beyond their natural resilience capability. Among the different
types of human interventions, mining of sand and gravel is the most
disastrous one, as the activity threatens the very existence of
river ecosystem. A better understanding of sand budget is necessary
if the problems of river and coastal environments are to be
solved.
