Abstract: The mobility of mud deposits in river systems is investigated. This is motivated by the pollution of the mud with heavy metals and hydro carbonates. The risk assessment is achieved by numerical simulation and information management with a Geographic Information System. In doing so, new approaches are developed to obtain decisions about measures to be undertaken with the mud. They range from dredging the mud over stabilisation to "doing nothing". With the help of the information management it can be easier to balance decisions between different interest groups.
