[edit] 25% of the world's mud ?

"Between them, these rivers carry 25% of the world's mud."

Can anybody confirm or give a source for this percentage? Lawrence Lavigne 23:04, May 6, 2005 (UTC)

[1] gives the same figure- I don't think that's where I got it from in the first place, but perhaps we're using the same ultimate source. Mark¹ 02:05, 9 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Area units

The figure "1,000 to 2,500 kilometers" appears to be a length or a width. It should be written as an area, my guess would be around several million km^2. Could someone fix this??
