Venezuela programs / Venezuela award AID/LA-118 · 1966 · Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Dept. of Civil Engineering. Hydrodynamics Laboratory
An extensive field investigation was undertaken in the Lake Maracaibo Estuary, Venezuela, to identify the sources of sediment being deposited in the dredged channel.1 The investigation indicated that the bulk of the sediment causing shoaling comes from the Gulf of Venezuela, where it originates from coastal erosion, strong littoral transport of sand and resuspension of fine material by wave action.1
