• Appreciating the problem of silting, growth of water hyacinth, weed, and eutrophication of the lake, the IIT Bombay's Class of 1980 launched a "Revitalization of Powai Lake" with the objective of restoring the lake to its original pristine and sustainable form by adopting Eco-friendly designs and materials for the restoration works.

• Its demise was accelerated by an attempt to reclaim saltings at Blythburgh, which resulted in the estuary silting up.

• Today silting in the harbour as a result of the structure (almost a dam) occurs, but is ameliorated a higher sea level and the scouring effects of the Isle of Wight ferries.
• soil erosion, soil contamination, soil acidification, sheet erosion, silting, aridification, salinization, urbanization, etc.
