Aobo Chen Live With Sediment The course of a high-sediment-content river is controlled by levee systems and oriented by water and sediment discharge functions, which cut off the connection between people and the water and destroy habitats. This project selects the Zhengzhou section of the Yellow River as a research case to explore a module system that can be applied to the entire river. The system aims to form a resilient waterfront that can adapt to the dynamically changing floodplain and seasonal flooding events, while treating sediment as a resource to reconnect people to the waterfront and restore the ecological habitat of the river.
