Sediment Transport Study - Irian Jaya, Indonesia

Engineering and Hydrosystems Inc. simulates sediment transport in Irian Jaya, Indonesia using HEC-6T and MIKE-11 software. The modeling results are used for the development of environmental protection programs. An extensive levee system was constructed to protect the surrounding areas against environmental degradation and flooding. The sediment transport modeling executed by Engineering and Hydrosystems Inc. predicts sediment level changes over a 38 year period and the volume of sediment that will flow into the Arafura Sea. This information is used for Environmental Risk Assessment.
