this is why i am concerned about the consequences of large-scale shifting of the hydrological environment.
the army corps of engineers did this in the florida everglades, causing serious havoc.
the soviets built the aswan dam, causing the nile's silt to back up behind the dam, just like it's going to these 'birds-foot' islands in the mississippi delta, going to unwanted places.
