TheLand use land cover Damodar River Basin (DRB), encompassing the MaithonMaithon, PanchetPanchet, and TenughatTenughat Dam catchmentsTenughat dam catchment, has experienced substantial Land Use Land Cover (LULC) changes that influence soil erosion andSediment dynamics sediment dynamics. This chapter explores the relationship between LULC variations and sediment yieldSediment yield, with a focus onAnthropogenic impact anthropogenic impacts such as urbanization, agriculture, and deforestationDeforestation. These land cover changes contribute significantly to soil erosion and sediment transport in the catchments. The research compares soil erosion, sediment yield, and sediment connectivitySediment connectivity across the three dams, providing a comprehensive understanding of their varying impacts. Additionally, the chapter evaluates the water-holding capacity and trapping efficiencyTrapping efficiency of each dam, highlighting their effectiveness in controlling sediment inflow. The chapter findings underscore the importance of monitoring LULC dynamics to manage soil erosion and sedimentation in dam catchments, offering key insights for sustainable watershed managementWatershed management. This research aims to improve strategies for sediment control and reservoir management in the region.
