silt up
"Silt up" refers to the process where an area, typically a water body like a river, canal, or harbor, gradually gets filled or clogged up with silt and other fine mineral particles. This accumulation typically results from sediment transportation or soil erosion, and it can significantly reduce water flow, cause navigational challenges, and alter the area's ecological balance.
